Obverse description Hammered silver flan bearing the royal tughra-style calligraphic inscription in Arabic script within the field, identifying the ruler as Sultan Ibrahim son of Ahmed Khan. The legend is disposed across the coin face in multiple lines of angular script, characteristic of mid-17th century Ottoman hammered coinage. The irregular flan shows the typical uneven edges and surface texture associated with hand-struck Ottoman akçe production. No figural imagery is present, in accordance with Islamic numismatic convention.
Obverse script Arabic
Obverse lettering سلطان ابراهيم بن احمد خان
(Translation: Sultan İbrahim son of Ahmed Khan.)
