Obverse description Host coin is an Ottoman copper piece (Turkey KM-666.3, AH1255), bearing a Greek countermark consisting of the conjoined letters 'A' and 'T' punched into the field. The countermark is applied to the obverse of the host coin, partially obscuring the underlying design and regnal year. The host coin's original toughra or calligraphic device remains partially visible beneath and around the countermark. The coin displays typical wear and surface patination consistent with circulation use, with the countermark showing clear, deliberate application.
