| Reverse description | Reverse displays a three-line Arabic inscription within a plain inner circle and beaded outer border, reading 'Azza nasruhu / Darb Dimashq / 926', meaning 'May his victory be glorious / Struck in Damascus / AH 926'. The mint name and Hijri date are clearly rendered in the lower two lines, with the pious invocation occupying the upper field. The strike is characteristic of hammered Ottoman provincial coinage, with slight weakness at the periphery consistent with irregular flan preparation. |
