Weight varies: 2.10-2.18 gInteresting fact
The Dirhem coin is interesting because it was issued during the reign of Sultan Osman II, who was only 14 years old at the time. Despite his young age, he was known for his ambition and military prowess, and his reign marked a significant period of Ottoman expansion and cultural achievements. The coin itself is a testament to the advanced minting techniques and artistry of the Ottoman Empire during that time.
