Ancient coins were issued by sultans and bore their names, but not portraits - in accordance with Islamic tradition. In 1327, Akche ("whitish") was minted by Orkhan. This small silver coin was in circulation on the territory of the Ottoman Empire and its neighboring states in the 14th - 19th centuries. Starting from 1623 until 1930, a silver Turkish coin was also in circulation - a pair. Then it was used exclusively as a counting unit, 1/40 kurush.
