| Beschrijving voorzijde | Hammered silver flan of irregular circular form bearing a multi-line Arabic legend in the field, reading 'Sultan Mehmed bin Ibrahim Khan', acknowledging the sultan's name and lineage. The script is rendered in a bold, somewhat cursive hand typical of mid-seventeenth-century Ottoman provincial coinage. Small rosette or star ornaments are interspersed between the lines of text, serving as decorative separators. The fields surrounding the legend show the characteristic rough texture of a hand-struck hammered coin. No figural imagery is present, consistent with Islamic numismatic tradition. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Mehmed IV ascended the throne in 1648 at age six following the deposition and subsequent murder of his father Ibrahim I — one of the more violent transitions in Ottoman succession history. The beslik, a five-akçe piece, was a denomination caught between the collapsing akçe and the larger kuruş that would eventually replace the older silver system entirely. Aleppo's mint was among the more active provincial facilities during this period, serving the commercial traffic of the Levantine trade routes.
