| Obverse description | Central rectangular cartouche containing multi-line Arabic inscription with the regnal titles and name of Sultan Selim III, with the AH date 1209 appearing in the lower portion of the cartouche. The cartouche is framed by a decorative border of diagonal hatching or floral ornaments at the corners, with a beaded outer rim encircling the entire field. The strike is characteristic of the hammered coinage of the Tripolitan Regency, with a somewhat irregular flan. |
