| Reverse description | Hammered gold flan bearing a multi-line Arabic legend in bold naskh script, arranged in four horizontal registers across the field. The inscription proclaims the sultan's imperial titles in traditional Ottoman formula. The field is fully occupied by the honorific titulature, with no additional decorative motifs. A continuous dotted border frames the entire design at the periphery, consistent with the obverse treatment and standard Ottoman sultani coinage convention of the late sixteenth century. |
| Reverse script | Arabic |
| Reverse lettering | سلطان البرين و خاقان البحرين السلطان بن السلطان (Translation: 'The sultan of the two lands and the khaqan of the two seas, Sultan son of Sultan') |
