Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the reign of Ahmed I, who was the first Sultan of the Ottoman Empire to issue coins with his own name and title, rather than using the name of the previous Sultan. This coin, minted in 1603, features the name "Ahmed I" in Arabic script, indicating the beginning of a new era in Ottoman coinage.
