| Obverse description | Central field occupied by a multi-line Arabic legend in bold thuluth script, presenting the royal titulature of Sultan Murad IV. The inscription is arranged in horizontal registers across the flan, typical of Ottoman hammered gold coinage. The irregular, slightly cusped border reflects the hand-struck nature of the flan. The field shows the characteristic granular texture of a hammered gold piece struck at the Damascus mint. |
