Manghir - Mehmed II

Aversbeschreibung	Hammered copper flan of irregular outline bearing a multi-line Arabic legend within the field. The inscription, struck in a bold though slightly uneven relief characteristic of Ottoman hand-struck copper coinage, occupies the full face of the coin and reads the sultan's name and patronymic. The surfaces show typical die wear and flan irregularities consistent with fifteenth-century Ottoman manghir production.

Reversbeschreibung	Hammered reverse displaying a bold multi-line Arabic legend filling the field, enclosed by a single linear border that follows the irregular contour of the flan. The inscription names the mint city of Konya and includes the pious formula invoking the perpetuity of the sultan's reign, rendered in the angular Ottoman script style typical of mid-fifteenth century copper issues. Die alignment and strike are slightly off-centre, consistent with hand-struck production at a provincial Anatolian mint.
