Hello experts

Looks like this coin is under Ahmed and Murad III

 

Ahmed I:

Murad III:

Numista entry:

N#69069

Numista says the word under Misr is “محرو” “The Guarded" and put as Ahmed.

 

So, it is Ahmed or Murad III?


 

 

 

Thank you for any comment

I'm not sure how they determined which was which on zeno 🙂 , the script on both coins is more or less the same, the Murad one showing more of the left/hand part. Maybe the style of the Obv ornament is the clue they used
