| Reverse description | Multi-line Arabic inscription occupying the full reverse field, containing the mint name (Dimashq) and the regnal year (AH 1049) in characteristic Ottoman calligraphic style. The legend is struck in bold relief against a flat field, with the place name and date arranged in stacked lines following standard Ottoman akçe design conventions. The irregular flan edges and die wear are consistent with a provincially struck hammered issue of the reign of Sultan Ibrahim I. |
