According to Forbin, the general design first appeared in 1891. This value (1 piastre) in violet first appeared in 1900, and then again in 1909 with the Toughra of Rechad. [edit: They are Forbin Turkey Droits Fixes #9 and #23, respectively.]
Both were listed at low values in 1915 (which may or may not have much relevance nearly 100 years on).
