| Reverse description | Irregular hammered flan displaying a bold Arabic inscription in the central field, encompassed by a dotted border running along the coin's periphery. The legend records the mint name 'Tripoli West' (طرابلس غرب) along with the regnal year sequence number, indicating the year of the Sultan's reign in which the coin was struck. The script is arranged in flowing calligraphic lines characteristic of provincial Ottoman hammered issues, with the inscription occupying the full field. The surface shows typical die wear and flan irregularity associated with hand-struck coinage of the Tripoli Regency. |
