| Reverse description | The reverse field bears a multi-line Arabic inscription arranged horizontally across the coin's center, reading the mint name and sultan's name: محمود (Mahmud) above طرابلس (Tarabulus/Tripoli), with the regnal year ١٢٢٣ (AH 1223) displayed along the lower portion. A six-pointed star ornament appears prominently at the top of the field above the inscriptions. The entire design is enclosed within the same toothed outer border as the obverse, consistent with the hammered technique employed at the Tripoli Mint. |
