This galleon can also be worth 53.5 zira. I made my calculations according to a galleon of 53 zira.

In 1145/1733, Küçük Gül Başlı and Zülfikar Kıçlı galleons were given to Cezayir-i Garb Quarry with 112 cannons. (BOA, MAD 10326, s. 129-130 (13 S. 1145/29 Ocak 1733); D. BSM 1713, s. 2). According to this historical record there should be a total of 56 guns per galleon. (56 + 56).
