Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 10 Kurus coin from the Ottoman Empire is that it features a unique design on its reverse side. The coin's reverse features a stylized depiction of the Ottoman Empire's coat of arms, which includes a crescent moon and a five-pointed star, surrounded by a wreath of laurel leaves. This design was used on many Ottoman coins during the reign of Mehmed V and has become a recognizable symbol of the Ottoman Empire's currency.
