| Obverse description | Hammered silver flan bearing a dense field of Arabic calligraphic inscriptions in the Ottoman thuluth style, occupying the full face of the coin without a defined border. The legends, struck in bold relief, carry the royal titulature of Sultan Murad III including his name and regnal epithets arranged across multiple lines. The irregular flan exhibits characteristic hammered surfaces with slight weakness at the periphery. No figural imagery is present, consistent with Islamic numismatic tradition. |
