| Reverse description | Crudely struck Arabic mint and authority legend filling the field of the irregular copper flan, indicating the place of issue as Baghdad. The inscription is rendered in a cursive Arabic script consistent with provincial Ottoman hammered coinage, enclosed within a dotted or granular border. The strike is bold but uneven, with typical weakness at the margins resulting from the hand-hammering technique employed at the Baghdad mint during this period. The reverse bears no additional decorative motifs, the mint formula alone constituting the entire design. |
