| Obverse description | The obverse is printed in brown and green on cream paper, dominated by an intricate arabesque guilloche underprint in green that fills the central field. The imperial tughra of Sultan Mehmed V appears at the top centre above the Ottoman state title in ornate calligraphic script, with the denomination fraction 1/4 rendered in circular guilloche cartouches at upper left and upper right. The series designation 'SÉRIE A' is letterpress-printed at the left margin, with the serial number at the right, and the central panel carries the authorising law text dated 22 Kânunuevvel 1331 in Arabic script along with the promise-to-pay clause and a manuscript signature at the foot. |
