| Obverse description | Central field bearing a multi-line Arabic inscription in Thuluth script, reading the titles and name of Sultan Orhan ibn Osman with the invocatory phrase 'May God make his victory glorious.' The legend is arranged in horizontal lines across the coin's face, typical of early Ottoman hammered akçe coinage, enclosed within a plain linear border. The flan is slightly irregular, consistent with hand-struck production of the period. |
