Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features an image of Mehmed V, also known as "el-Ghazi," which means "the conqueror" in Arabic. This coin was minted during his reign from 1909 to 1916, and it's interesting to note that Mehmed V was the last Sultan of the Ottoman Empire to have actual power, as the empire was in decline and eventually collapsed after World War I.
