One interesting fact about the Manghir - Mehmed II (Amasya) 855 (1451) coin from the Ottoman Empire is that it was issued during the reign of Mehmed II, also known as Mehmed the Conqueror, who was the seventh Sultan of the Ottoman Empire and ruled from 1451 until his death in 1481. Mehmed II is significant in history for his conquest of Constantinople in 1453, which marked the end of the Byzantine Empire and the beginning of the Ottoman Empire's expansion into Europe. The coin's design, which features Arabic script and the Ottoman Empire's emblem, reflects the Islamic influences on the empire's culture and currency during this time period.
