| Reverse description | Hammered gold flan with the full Ottoman imperial titulature inscribed in bold Arabic calligraphy, arranged in multiple horizontal lines across the entire field. The legend reads 'Sultan of the Two Lands and Khagan of the Two Seas, the Sultan son of the Sultan', a standard Ottoman sultanic formula conferring sovereignty over land and sea domains. The script is rendered in a dense Thuluth style characteristic of Ottoman coinage of the early seventeenth century, with letters intertwining across the field. The coin's irregular flan edges and surface texture are typical of hammered Ottoman gold sultani coinage of this period. |
