| Obverse description | Central field bearing the ruler's name in Arabic script, reading 'Muhammad b. Murád Khán', rendered in a bold, angular calligraphic style characteristic of early Ottoman hammered copper coinage. The legend is set within the field without a formal frame, surrounded by a rudimentary beaded or dotted border near the coin's irregular periphery. The die work is typical of mid-15th century Ottoman mangir production, with somewhat crude but legible lettering occupying most of the flan. |
