Summary

Description
العربية: بنكنوت عُثماني
ورقة نقديَّة عُثمانيَّة جديدة، أصدرها البنك السُلطاني العُثماني يوم 15 تمُّوز (يوليو) 1880، وكانت فريدة من نوعها لِعدَّة أسباب. بدايةً، على الرُغم من إصدارها سنة 1880، أي خلال السنة الرابعة من عهد السُلطان عبد الحميد الثاني، فإنها أُرِّخت بِسنة 1875، وطُبعت عليها طغراء السُلطان عبد العزيز، الذي خُلع عن العرش سنة 1876. يبدو أنَّ هذه الورقة حُضِّرت وطُبعت سنة 1875 ثُمَّ أوقفت ولم تصدر لِلتداول، بِسبب الأزمة الماليَّة القائمة آنذاك. أبرز العلائم المُميزة لِهذه الورقة هي المٌلاحظة التي طُبعت عليها بِأربع لُغات :التُركيَّة والفرنسيَّة والعربيَّة والأرمنيَّة واليونانيَّة. هذه التعدُّديَّة اللُغويَّة بِالإضافة إلى اعتماد التقويم الغريغوري عوض الهجري يُظهر سياسة العثمنة التي انتهجتها الدولة آنذاك، أي مُحاولة صهر كُل القوميَّات في بوتقةٍ عُثمانيَّةٍ واحدة. يظهرُ على الورقة أيضًا ختم مُصطفى مظهر وتوقيع بوڤيس وڤنسنت.
English: An “Ottomanist” banknote
A new banknote, first issued on 15 July 1880 by the Ottoman Bank, was rather unique for a number of reasons. First of all, although it was issued in 1880 during the fourth year of the reign of Sultan Abdülhamid II, it bore the date of 1875, and carried the tuğra (monogram) of Sultan Abdülaziz, who had been dethroned in 1876. It appears that the banknote was prepared and printed in 1875 but had been on hold since, due to the financial crisis at the time. The most interesting aspect of the banknote was that it carried inscriptions in five languages: Turkish and French, as usual, but also Greek, Armenian and Arabic. The multi-lingualism, in addition to the use of the Gregorian calendar rather than the Islamic calendar, testified to the Ottomanism of the time. 1 lira note sealed by Mustafa Mazhar and signed by Beauvais and Vincent
Türkçe: “Osmanlıcı” bir banknot
15 Temmuz 1880 tarihinde Osmanlı Bankası tarafından ihraç edilen 1 liralık banknot birçok açıdan ilginçti. Her şeyden önce 1880’de, yani Sultan II. Abdülhamid’in saltanatının dördüncü yılında çıkarıldığı hâlde üstünde 1875 tarihi ve 1876’da tahttan indirilmiş olan Sultan Abdülaziz’in tuğrasını taşıyordu. 1875 yılında hazırlanıp basılmasına rağmen, araya giren kriz yüzünden beş yıl kadar bekletilmişti. Banknotun en ilginç özelliği ise, beş farklı dilde ibareler içermesiydi. Fransızca ve Türkçe’nin yanı sıra Yunanca, Ermenice ve Arapça dillerinin kullanılması, tarihin Hicri yerine Rumi takvimle verilmesi banknotun ilk tasarlandığı dönemdeki Osmanlıcılık akımının bir temsiliydi. Mustafa Mazhar mühürlü, Beauvais ve Vincent imzalı 1 liralık banknot
