| Obverse lettering | سكة دار الضرب حلب (Translation: Coin of the mint of Aleppo) |
| Reverse description | The reverse displays a multi-line Arabic legend in Naskh script occupying the central field, proclaiming the sultan's titles. The inscription is set within a dotted inner border, with pellets decorating the surrounding field. The flan exhibits the characteristic irregular edges and uneven surface of a hand-struck Ottoman provincial copper mangir. The overall strike is bold but slightly off-center, consistent with hammered coinage of the Aleppo mint during the reign of Süleyman I. |
