| Obverse description | Central field bearing a three-line Arabic legend in bold, raised Thuluth script, reading 'Sultan / Mahmud Khan / 'Azza Nasruhu' (Sultan Mahmud Khan, may his victory be glorious), a honorific invocation acknowledging the Ottoman sultan's sovereignty. The inscriptions are separated by horizontal line dividers and are enclosed within a beaded border following the irregular, roughly polygonal flan. The coin exhibits the characteristic crude hammered execution typical of Algerian batlaka coinage of the early nineteenth century. |
