| Obverse description | Central field bearing the mint name 'Kostantiniyya' (Constantinople) in Arabic script, with the regnal year 926 A.H. inscribed below or alongside. The legend is set within a roughly circular border typical of hammered Ottoman copper coinage, with the script occupying the majority of the flan in the angular, angular Thuluth style characteristic of early sixteenth-century Ottoman mint production. |
