Comment
Weight varies 2.49-2.86 g.Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during the reign of Abdülhamid II, who was the 34th Sultan of the Ottoman Empire and ruled from 1876 to 1909. Abdülhamid II was known for his efforts to modernize the Ottoman Empire, and this coin reflects that effort, as it was made with a blend of copper and silver, which was a more modern and durable material than the traditional gold and silver coins that were previously used.
