| Reverse description | Irregular hammered flan with Arabic legend arranged within a rectangular cartouche framed by two horizontal lines. The central field bears the mint name 'طرابلس' (Tripoli) alongside the Hijri date '١٢٢٣' (AH 1223), rendered in bold Arabic script. Above the cartouche, a multi-rayed star ornament is prominently struck, consistent with Ottoman provincial mint conventions. The lower field below the cartouche shows traces of additional inscription or decorative elements. The overall style reflects the rough provincial craftsmanship typical of the Tripolitan Regency mint. |
