Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the reign of Ahmed I, who was the Sultan of the Ottoman Empire at the time. The coin features an inscription in Arabic that reads "Al-Sultanu al-Azam Muhammad Ahmed bin al-Sultan al-Awwal" which translates to "The Supreme Sultan Muhammad Ahmed, son of the First Sultan". This inscription indicates that the coin was minted during Ahmed I's reign, which lasted from 1603 to 1605.
