| Reverse description | Irregularly shaped hammered flan enclosed by a continuous beaded border following the coin's uneven periphery. The field displays a multi-line Arabic legend in thuluth script arranged in horizontal registers, with the mint name Jaza'ir (Algiers) positioned in the upper register and the AH regnal year inscribed in the lower register. The bold calligraphic letterforms are deeply struck and characteristic of Algerian Regency hammered coinage of the late 18th to early 19th century. |
