Reverse description The reverse presents a central Arabic legend arranged in three lines within an unadorned field, proclaiming the mint of issue and the Hijri date. This inscription is enclosed within a wreath of olive branches tied at the base, rendered in high relief typical of Ottoman gold coinage. The legend reads 'May he be victorious, struck in Monastir, 1327,' commemorating the special striking at the Monastir (Manastir) Mint. The reverse design is austere and text-focused, consistent with Ottoman imperial gold coin conventions of the period.
