| Obverse description | Central field bears a multi-line Arabic inscription reading 'Sultan Abdulhamid Khan', arranged horizontally within an ornate wreath of laurel or olive branches that frames the entire design. The wreath is tied at the base with a decorative knot or floral device. The legend is rendered in bold relief, occupying the full interior of the wreath. The coin border is defined by a continuous reeded or beaded rim. No figural motif is present, consistent with Islamic numismatic convention. |
