| Reverse description | Hammered silver field bearing a partial Arabic inscription in thuluth script, with bold rounded letterforms visible across the flan; the legend references the mint name Kostantiniye and the regnal year in accordance with standard Ottoman akçe reverse typology. The strike is off-center toward the upper register, leaving portions of the reverse field blank, typical of hand-hammered production of this denomination and era. |
