Reverse description The reverse presents four horizontal lines of bold Arabic calligraphic text filling the entire field, each line separated by a raised rule, conveying the sultan's titulature. Small lozenge-shaped ornaments punctuate the field between the lines. The regnal year numeral appears within the lower register of the inscription. The design is enclosed within a beaded border consistent with the obverse, giving the coin a uniform and formal appearance typical of Ottoman milled coinage of the period.
