Obverse description Central field dominated by the tughra (royal monogram) of Sultan Murad II, rendered in stylized Arabic calligraphy characteristic of early Ottoman hammered coinage. The tughra occupies the majority of the flan, with the characteristic looped and arched elements of the monogram clearly defined. A row of pellets appears above the tughra along the upper margin. The flan is irregular and slightly clipped at the edge, typical of hand-struck akçes of this period. The die is well-centered relative to the small flan.
