Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 10 Para coin from the Ottoman Empire is that it was issued during the reign of Mehmed V, who was also known as "el-Ghazi" or "the Victorious" due to his military victories. The coin features the Sultan's name and title in Arabic script on one side, and the Toughra symbol on the other, which was a unique calligraphic emblem used by the Ottoman Sultans. This coin was minted in 1327 (1915-1916) and made of nickel, weighing 2.60 grams. It is a rare and valuable collector's item for numismatists interested in Ottoman history and coinage.
