A 500 kurush coin should weigh 36 grams. https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces34991.html So this is not a posibility for your item. It also does not look like gold. Report this Post to the Staff

Reno911 Valued Member United States 316 Posts	Posted 04/14/2023 12:10 am Looks like someone soldered the bail on to the coin/token. Most bails seen aren't that shape or metal for that type of real accept for the gold I believe. It's hard to tell but I'm going to be a betting person here and say it's counterfeit do to it history.
