Gandy_II New Member Czech Republic 18 Posts	Posted 07/27/2011 05:17 am Here I have four unidentified coins - I think, that they are from the Ottoman empire (18. or 19. century). First and second coins are billion, third is silver, four is copper. On third coin is date 1143 - Mahmud I.? Thanks in advance. Report this Post to the Staff

Sap Moderator Australia 16881 Posts	Posted 07/27/2011 08:19 am Hello and welcome. When asking for a coin ID, giving the size is always helpful - it helps narrow down the search. I can't see enough details on #1 to give an ID. #2 I can see where the accession year is, but can't read it clearly. Best guess is "1223", regnal year 1, which should make it an akce or para, depending on size. #3 is a para, accession year 1143 (KM# 193). Ottoman coins of this period use regnal year symbols rather than numbers, and if I've located the symbol correctly, yours is Symbol XIV. #4 is an imitation coin used for jewellery purposes. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff
