richard1 Posted January 18, 2011 Report Share Posted January 18, 2011 I have had this coin for over 40 years and have been unable to identify it. Any assistance or advice about where to look would be most appreciated. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ccg Posted January 18, 2011 Report Share Posted January 18, 2011 Welcome! The underlying coin is an Ottoman issue from the 1800s or early 1900s, though I'm not familiar with the counterstamps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
