Islamic Dynasties
Ottoman Empire. Orhan Ghazi (AH 724-761 / AD 1324-1360) Akce AH 727 (AD 1326/7) AU50 NGC, Bursa mint (in Turkey), A-1288.2 (R), Pere-Unl., Damali-2-BU-G4a-YY727, Remler Type II. 19mm. 1.09gm. Citing the long-deceased Abbasid caliph al-Mustansir. Very rare to find carrying both the mint and date, and likely meant to signify Orhan's independence from his Mongol overlords, with the egg shape of the flan allowing the majority of the stamp to fill the fields.
