| Reverse description | Arabic legend in three lines across the central field reading 'Muhammad al-Sadiq Bey Tunis' (محمد الصادق باي تونس), identifying the Tunisian Bey and the issuing authority. Below a horizontal rule, the Hijri date 1289 (١٢٨٩) appears, with an ornamental cartouche at the base. The whole is framed by an open wreath of olive branches tied at the foot, consistent with the decorative style of the Husainid Beylik coinage. |
