| Obverse description | Central field bears a three-line Arabic inscription reading 'Sultan Abdulaziz Khan', the name and title of the Ottoman sultan, enclosed within a symmetrical wreath of two palm or olive branches tied at the base with a ribbon bow. The wreath frames the legend in a decorative cartouche-style arrangement. The coin's border is defined by a continuous beaded rim encircling the entire design. No effigy or figurative motif is present, consistent with Islamic numismatic tradition. The overall composition is clean and formal, typical of mid-nineteenth-century Ottoman-influenced Tunisian coinage. |
