| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse displays a wreath-like arrangement of flowing Arabic calligraphic inscriptions encircling the central field, within a beaded border. Prominently struck in the center of the field is the Arabic numeral '١٠' (10), denoting the denomination in para. Surrounding this central value are multiple lines of Arabic legend reading 'عز نصره ضرب في قسطنطينية ١٠ ١٢٧٧ سنه' — 'May he be victorious, struck in Constantinople, 10, year 1277' — the mint name, regnal year, and pious invocation distributed across the upper and lower portions of the field in characteristic Ottoman calligraphic style. |

Abdülaziz came to the Ottoman throne in 1861 following the death of his brother Abdülmecid I, inheriting an empire already deep in debt from Crimean War borrowing. The copper para coinage of his early reign was issued under monetary reforms that had been grinding forward since the Tanzimat period, attempting to rationalize a currency system that had been debased and fragmented for decades. These small copper pieces circulated heavily across Anatolia and the Balkans, absorbing the kind of wear that leaves most survivors in well-circulated condition.
