Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Altmislik coin is that it was issued during the reign of Abdülhamid I, who was the 27th Sultan of the Ottoman Empire and ruled from 1789 to 1807. During his reign, the Ottoman Empire was facing significant challenges, including territorial losses and economic difficulties. Despite these challenges, Abdülhamid I was able to implement various reforms, including the creation of a new currency system, which included the Altmislik coin. The coin was minted in the city of Kostantiniyye (modern-day Istanbul) and was made of Billon, a metal alloy consisting of 46.5% silver and 53.5% copper. The coin weighed 26.4 grams and had a diameter of 34 millimeters. It is an interesting piece of history that provides insight into the economic and political climate of the Ottoman Empire during the late 18th century.
