| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central field bearing a four-line Arabic legend giving the mint and regnal year formula, reading 'Azza nasruhu / Duriba fi / Saray / Sanat 1032', meaning 'May his victory be glorious / Struck at / Saray / Year 1032 [AH]'. The phrase 'azza nasruhu' is the standard Ottoman pious invocation for the reigning sultan appearing on akce reverses of this period. The mint name Saray (the imperial palace mint at Constantinople) appears on the third line, followed by the Hijri date 1032, corresponding to 1623 CE. Several small circular pellet ornaments are visible in the upper field, a decorative feature associated with the Saray mint type. The flan edges are irregular and clipped, consistent with hammered production. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Murad IV came to the throne at eleven years old in 1623, with the empire effectively controlled by his mother Kösem Sultan during his early reign. The akçe by this point had suffered two centuries of steady debasement — from roughly 1.2g in the mid-fifteenth century to this skeletal fraction — making individual pieces nearly valueless in daily commerce. Large transactions required counting them in the hundreds.
The Saray mint designation refers to the Istanbul palace mint, active intermittently and distinct from the main Constantinople production.
