| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field features the ornate tughra (imperial monogram) of Sultan Mehmed V, flanked on either side by stylized olive and wheat branches. The tughra is surrounded by a beaded inner border. Three stars appear in the legend area, and the inscription in Arabic script reading 'Freedom, Equality, Justice' arcs around the upper portion of the design, with the regnal year (Year 7) indicated below. The overall composition reflects the reformist emblems adopted during the late Ottoman constitutional period. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
This issue falls within the catastrophic final years of the Ottoman Empire's involvement in World War I, when Mehmed V — largely a ceremonial figurehead — had declared jihad against the Entente powers in November 1914 at the insistence of Enver Pasha and the Committee of Union and Progress. The nickel coinage of this period reflects the empire's increasingly strained treasury; silver had effectively been abandoned for small denominations as metal reserves were diverted toward the war effort.
The "el-Ghazi" epithet attached to Mehmed V was largely honorific, awarded following the Balkan Wars despite his minimal personal role in military affairs.
