10 Para - Mahmud II type B

Obverse description	Central field dominated by the elaborate tughra of Sultan Mahmud II, executed in the ornate Ottoman calligraphic style with characteristic looped and scrolled elements. Below the tughra, a horizontal line divides the field from the lower inscription bearing the mint name Tripoli West (Tarabulus Gharb) and the accession year 1223 AH. The entire design is enclosed within a circular border of dots or a cable pattern typical of hammered provincial Ottoman coinage. The irregular flan and characteristic striking style reflect the provincial mint at Tripoli.

Reverse description	The reverse displays a multi-line Arabic legend arranged in horizontal registers within the coin's field, proclaiming the full Ottoman imperial titulature of Sultan Mahmud II. The inscription reads 'Sultan of the Two Lands and Khagan of the Two Seas, the Sultan son of the Sultan,' accompanied by the regnal year numeral in the upper register. The text is rendered in a bold, angular hand consistent with provincial Ottoman die-cutting, surrounded by a dotted or beaded border. The overall arrangement follows standard Ottoman provincial coinage conventions of the early 19th century.
