| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse bears four lines of Arabic inscription arranged across the central field, reading 'Struck in Egypt, quarter of one tenth of the Piastre.' Two six-pointed stars flank the uppermost line of text, serving as decorative separators. The Hijri date 1327 appears in the lower portion of the field. The legends are rendered in a clear, formal Naskh calligraphic style, filling the flan with no additional border ornamentation. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Khedivate of Egypt struck these fractional bronzes under Ottoman suzerainty, with Mehmed V's tughra appearing on Egyptian coinage as a formality of imperial authority — one the Khedives had been quietly undermining for decades. By 1910, Britain effectively controlled Egyptian finances, the army, and foreign policy, making the sultan's name on the coin a diplomatic courtesy more than a reflection of actual sovereignty. Egypt would be declared a British Protectorate outright in 1914, rendering this among the last issues to carry the Ottoman formula.
