This specimen is from a series struck in Istanbul during the reign of Sultan Abdul Aziz (r. 1861-1876). Ottoman coins were dated using regnal years; the reverse bears the date AH 1277 (= 1861 A.D.) while the obverse bears the regnal year 4. The Hejira calendar uses a lunar year instead of a solar year, so its starting date moves from year to year. This type was issued one year only.

Recorded mintage: 16,000,000.

Specification: copper.

Catalog reference: KM 699.
