Islamic Dynasties
Ottoman Empire. Suleyman I (AH 926-974 / AD 1520-1566) gold Sultani AH 926 (AD 1520) MS62 NGC, Srebrennica mint (in Bosnia), A-1317 (for type), ICV-3158 (same), Pere-190. 21mm. 3.51gm. Quite an elite rendition from this extremely rare Bosnian mint for gold issues, a handsomely high relief to the strike more than compensating for the mildly rusty nature of the dies. While slightly off-center, the entirety of the design has found its mark on the flan, also allowing an unusually large portion of the beaded border to be seen. For reference, a similar example minted on a notably more compact flan hammered for the equivalent of $5952 in Baldwin's of St. James's September 2017 Auction #10 (lot 3022), and we expect this broad specimen to garner even greater enthusiasm.
