| Reverse description | Central field displaying a stylised floral or rosette ornament, a decorative motif commonly employed on Ottoman copper manghir issues of this period as a secondary design element. The irregular flan and characteristic flat, uneven strike are consistent with hammered copper production of the Constantinople mint under Suleiman I. The field surrounding the ornament is plain, with the design occupying the centre of the coin. |
