| Obverse description | The obverse displays a multi-line Arabic calligraphic legend filling the entire field, executed in the characteristic Ottoman tughra-influenced style. The central inscription reads 'al-Sultan Mustafa ibn Muhammad Khan' with the regnal prayer 'dama mulkuhu' (may his reign endure) arranged in bold raised lettering across three horizontal registers. A lower panel in the exergue records the mint name Edirne (Adrianople) and the accession year 1103 AH. The entire design is enclosed within a beaded inner border, itself surrounded by a plain raised rim, the flan exhibiting the characteristic irregular edge of hammered coinage. |
