Reverse description Multi-line Arabic inscription in bold calligraphic script occupying the full coin field, divided into horizontal registers. The legend proclaims the imperial titles 'Sultan of the Two Lands and Khagan of the Two Seas, the Sultan son of the Sultan,' with the regnal year numeral appearing in the lower field. The border is irregular and consistent with the hammered flan. No ornamental devices or borders beyond the raw coin edge are present. The overall style and execution are consistent with provincial Ottoman gold coinage of the early 19th century.
