Suleiman II was the Sultan of the Ottoman Empire between 1687 and 1691. The war in Hungary took place under his rule. In 1688, he lost Székesfehérvár and Nándorfehérvár. In 1609, the sultan released the prisoner, Imré Thököly, and entrusted him with the recapture of Transylvania. Thököly was successful and was elected prince of Transylvania in 1690. Suleiman died in 1691. His brother, Ahmed II followed him on the throne.

II. Sultan Suleiman ascended the throne in 1687 and under his rule the Ottoman Empire began to decline. During the Rákóczi War of Independence, the empire lost most of Hungary, and the Habsburg Empire began further conquest. II. Suleiman's coinage reflected the weakening of the empire. The Sultan minted smaller denominations than before, and the material of the money also deteriorated. The smallest denomination was the copper 1 mangir weighing 1.9 grams and 19 millimeters in diameter. The larger denominations were made of silver and weighed 2.7, 5.1, 10.2 and 20.4 grams. The obverse of the coins featured the sultan's tuğra, which was the calligrapher's seal or monogram. The name of the sultan, the year of minting and the value of the denomination were indicated on the reverse side. II. Suleiman's coinage is an important historical document that shows the decline of the empire. The material and weight of the coins reflect the financial difficulties of the empire.
