| Reverse description | Square hammered flan displaying a three-line Arabic inscription in the field, reading 'Duriba / Tunis / 1033', indicating the mint city of Tunis and the AH date of striking corresponding to 1624 CE. The Hijri date 1033 is rendered in Arabic script across the lower line of the legend. The relief lettering is bold and slightly irregular, characteristic of the hammered technique employed at provincial Ottoman mints. No additional ornamental devices or border elements are present, and the flan edges show the typical irregularity of hand-prepared square planchets. |
