| Obverse description | Central field dominated by the elaborate calligraphic tughra of Sultan Mahmud II, rendered in the traditional Ottoman monogram style with interlocking loops and vertical strokes. The denomination numeral '٢٠' (20 Para) appears below the tughra in Arabic script. The coin's edge shows a milled border. The overall design is characteristic of early 19th-century Ottoman provincial coinage struck for Egypt. |
