| Obverse description | Within a beaded circle, a multi-line Arabic legend in Ottoman script presenting the sultan's titulature, reading 'Ahmed Sultan ibn Muhammad Han' — identifying the ruler as Ahmed I, son of Mehmed III. The inscription is arranged concentrically around the central field, with a fine beaded border enclosing the design. The lettering is hand-struck in the characteristic hammered style of early Ottoman akçes, resulting in slight irregularity in the coin's form. No figurative imagery is present, consistent with Islamic numismatic tradition. |
