| Reverse description | The reverse presents a three-line Arabic inscription in bold, deeply struck calligraphic script filling the central field. The legend reads 'Duriba fi Islambol 1203,' indicating the mint city of Constantinople and the regnal year 1203 AH. The text is arranged in horizontal registers and is enclosed within a plain raised rim. The inscription style reflects the formal Thuluth calligraphic tradition employed on Ottoman gold coinage of the period. |
