Reverse description Hammered silver flan displaying a multi-line Arabic legend filling the field, executed in compressed Ottoman calligraphic script. The inscription reads: 'May his victory be glorious. Struck in Egypt, year 1106 [AH]', providing the mint name Misr (Cairo) and the Hijri regnal year corresponding to 1695 CE. The lettering is arranged in horizontal lines across the flan, with numerals indicating the mint date in the lower portion. The surface shows characteristic die-struck relief with slight weakness at the margins, consistent with hand-hammered provincial minting practice.
