| Reverse description | The reverse presents a dense, multi-line Arabic inscription filling the entire field, recording the Hijri mint date and place of issue. The legend reads 'Struck in Tunis' accompanied by the Hijri year, arranged in stacked calligraphic lines in a style consistent with Ottoman-influenced Tunisian mint practice. A beaded border encircles the inscription, framing the text against a flat, unadorned field. The irregular striking characteristic of hammered billon coinage is visible, with the legends showing slight doubling on some specimens due to die movement during production. |
