| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse field is similarly filled with a four-line Arabic calligraphic legend in Thuluth script, arranged in horizontal registers separated by incuse lines within a plain inner circle. The uppermost register carries the name of the sultan, the central lines record the mint formula and Hijri date, and the lowermost register names the mint city of Algiers. A continuous dotted border frames the entire composition at the periphery. The layout and calligraphic style are characteristic of Ottoman provincial gold coinage struck at Algiers during the early nineteenth century. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Regency of Algiers operated as an Ottoman tributary state throughout this period, but by 1820 effective authority had long since devolved to the locally elected Dey rather than Constantinople. The coinage reflects this ambiguity — struck nominally in the name of Mahmud II yet produced under a government the Ottomans could barely influence. France's invasion of June 1830 ended the Regency entirely, making the final years of this issue some of the most politically turbulent in the mint's history.
Algiers sultani gold from this decade is notoriously irregular in fabric, a consequence of primitive local striking conditions rather than any central mint discipline.
