| Obverse description | Central field displays the Arabic tughra-style calligraphic inscription of the ruler's name and title within an ornate olive wreath tied at the base. The denomination '15 F' (Francs) appears in Arabic numeral and Latin letter form in the lower central field beneath the calligraphic legend. The wreath is surmounted by a decorative finial at the apex, and the coin's milled border frames the entire design. The composition combines Arabic script with the Latin denomination indicator, reflecting the dual monetary standard of the French Protectorate era. |
