Fals - Anonymous, temp. Yunus Bey Antaliya

Yunus Bey governed Antalya as a semi-autonomous Ottoman official in the late 15th century, and anonymous copper fals of this type occupy an awkward administrative space — issued locally without a sultan's name, which was unusual enough in Ottoman minting practice to suggest either a transitional authority gap or a deliberate local dispensation. The Antalya mint had a long pre-Ottoman history under the Hamidids and before them the Anatolian Seljuks, and local copper coinage traditions died hard.
