| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field bears a three-line Arabic inscription reading 'Sultan Abd Al-Aziz Khan', enclosed within a beaded or plain inner circle. Flanking the central cartouche on both sides is a wreath composed of two olive or laurel branches, tied at the base with a ribbon bow, forming an oval frame around the legend. The overall design is simple and typographic, with no pictorial effigy, characteristic of Ottoman-era Tunisian coinage. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Tunisia in 1865 was nominally Ottoman but functionally autonomous under the Husainid beys, and this coin reflects that dual authority — struck under Bey Muhammad III al-Sadiq while acknowledging the Ottoman sultan Abdülaziz. The pairing was political theater as much as monetary policy; the bey controlled taxation and spending while the Porte received nominal deference. That same year, Tunisia was reeling from a devastating plague and famine that had killed tens of thousands, conditions which led directly to the fiscal collapse and ruinous foreign borrowing that would end in the 1869 bankruptcy.
