Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the reign of Sultan Ahmed I, who was the Ottoman Sultan from 1603 to 1617. This coin was part of a series of coins issued during his reign that featured the sultan's name and title on one side and the date and mint location on the other. The use of gold in the coin's composition was a symbol of the sultan's wealth and power.
