| Reverse description | Arabic mint and place-of-issue legend in two lines, divided by a horizontal bar, reading 'Duriba fi Qustantina' (ضرب في قسطينة), meaning 'Struck in Constantine.' The reverse is framed by a partial beaded border visible along the coin's periphery, a characteristic feature of the Constantine mint issues of the late Regency period. The hammered strike produces a somewhat irregular and uneven surface, consistent with the artisanal production methods of this coinage. |
