| Obverse description | Central field dominated by the Arabic legend سلطان محمود خان (Sultan Mahmud Khan) rendered in flowing naskh script, arranged in three lines across the flan. The inscription is enclosed within a beaded inner border, with the irregular hammered flan producing a characteristically uneven outline typical of provincial Ottoman copper coinage. The surfaces show a green patina consistent with aged copper. |
