One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique design element known as the "Reshat" right of Toughra, which is a small calligraphic signature of the Sultan Mehmed V, located to the right of the Toughra (the imperial monogram). This feature was added to the coinage during Mehmed V's reign (1909-1918) and was a distinctive characteristic of Ottoman coins during that time.
