Reverse description The reverse field displays a multi-line Arabic inscription reading 'محمد الصادق بتونس ٥ ١٢٨١', referencing Muhammad III as-Sadiq, Bey of Tunis, along with the denomination 5 and the AH date 1281. The calligraphic legends are boldly struck and fill the central field, with the Hijri date 1281 positioned in the lower portion of the coin. A beaded border frames the design, consistent with the obverse treatment. The overall style reflects the dual Ottoman-Tunisian authority acknowledged on this issue.
