| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field occupied by the Arabic tughra-style inscription of Sultan Ahmed III, reading 'Sultan Ahmed bin Muhammad' in multiple lines. The script is rendered in the characteristic Ottoman calligraphic style typical of hammered coinage of this period. No border legend or decorative frame is present; the inscription fills the irregular flan. The die workmanship is typical of provincial Ottoman hammered silver, with uneven strike distribution across the flan. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Ahmed III came to power in 1703 following the deposition of Mustafa II in the Edirne Incident, a janissary revolt that would set the tone for his turbulent reign. The Misr mint operated as a semi-autonomous Egyptian production center under Ottoman oversight, and its output frequently diverged from Constantinople in weight standards and fineness — this para falls on the lighter end of what the type is known to produce, a consequence of persistent debasement pressure at the provincial level rather than any minting accident.
