Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features two different leaders on its obverse and reverse sides. Abdulhamid II is depicted on the obverse, while Muhammad III is shown on the reverse. This is a unique feature, as most coins typically feature only one leader or a single image on both sides.
