Description from the seller
Ottoman Empire.
Ahmed III (1703–1730 AD).
Akçe (Silver, 9 mm, 0.1 g).
Obv: سلطان احمد بن محمد خان, inscription in horizontal lines. “Sultan Ahmed, son of Mehmed Khan.”
Rev: عز نصره / ضرب قسطنطينية / ١١١٥, inscription in horizontal lines. “May his victory be glorious / struck at Constantinople / 1115 AH.”
Reference: KM 136; Pere 526.
Ahmed III (1703–1730 AD) ruled the Ottoman Empire during an age of warfare and cultural renewal. His later reign witnessed the Tulip Era, when gardens, libraries and elegant fountains flourished in Istanbul amid growing interest in European diplomacy and innovation. Courtly splendour contrasted with popular discontent, and the Patrona Halil rebellion forced his abdication in 1730.
