Beschrijving voorzijde Central field bearing the elaborate tughra (imperial monogram) of Sultan Ibrahim I, rendered in the characteristic Ottoman calligraphic style with sweeping curved strokes, ascending vertical shafts, and looped lower elements. The tughra dominates the flan and is executed in raised relief typical of hammered Ottoman coinage. The irregular flan edge is consistent with hand-struck production of the period.

Aanvullende informatie

Ibrahim I came to the throne in 1640 after his brother Murad IV died without an heir, having spent most of his own life imprisoned in the kafes — the palace cage where potential rivals were confined, sometimes for decades. His ten-year reign became notorious for fiscal mismanagement severe enough that the imperial treasury resorted to repeated debasements of the silver coinage. Whether this particular dirhem predates the worst of that debasement or reflects it depends heavily on the specific die state and silver purity, which varied considerably across mints during his reign.
