One interesting fact about the 100 Para coin from Baghdad Eyalet (Iraq) is that it was issued during the reign of Sultan Mahmud II in 1223 (1808), and it features an intricate design that includes an inscription in Arabic script, which reads "Mahmud II, Sultan of the Ottoman Empire" on one side, and the date of issue on the other.
