| Obverse description | Central field bears a multi-line Arabic legend naming the Ottoman Sultan in four lines, enclosed within a finely rendered wreath of olive or laurel branches tied at the base with a ribbon bow. The legend reads 'Al-Sultan Al-Ghazi Abdulmecid Khan' in stylized Maghrebi Arabic calligraphy. The coin's milled edge is visible around the periphery. The overall design is devoid of figural imagery, consistent with Islamic numismatic tradition. |
