Obverse description Central field occupied by the Arabic tughra-style inscription of Sultan Ahmed III, reading 'Sultan Ahmed bin Muhammad' in multiple lines. The script is rendered in the characteristic Ottoman calligraphic style typical of hammered coinage of this period. No border legend or decorative frame is present; the inscription fills the irregular flan. The die workmanship is typical of provincial Ottoman hammered silver, with uneven strike distribution across the flan.
