| Obverse description | Crudely struck hammered copper flan bearing the ruler's name inscription in Arabic script within the field. The legend reads 'Mehmed son of Murad' (محمد بن مراد), disposed across the coin's surface in characteristic Ottoman hammered style. The lettering is rough and irregular in execution, typical of low-denomination provincial coinage of the period. The field is flat and unadorned, with no additional decorative elements or border. Strike quality is typical of contemporary mangir issues, exhibiting uneven metal flow and surface irregularities. |
