| Additional information |
Suleiman I's accession in 1520 triggered a rapid reissuance of coinage across Ottoman territories, including the North African regencies that had only recently come under nominal Ottoman suzerainty. Tripoli at this date was not yet the firmly administered eyalet it would become — Ottoman control was loose, contested by the Hafsids to the west and residual Spanish influence from their 1510 garrison.
Artuk 1571 is among the scarcer provincial sultani attributions from Suleiman's opening regnal year.
