QuickSilver Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 1077 Posts	Posted 01/20/2009 1:13 pm I would say it's from Turkey, not Egypt. Dated approx 1912 in western calendar (1327 on reverse plus 4 on the obverse equals AH1331) Denomination and therefore value depends on the size. If you let me know the diameter of the coin I can tell you more. Report this Post to the Staff
Smileycorpse New Member United Kingdom 17 Posts	Posted 01/20/2009 1:44 pm Its 16mm across,about 1mm thick. They both look similar,the turkish ones looks more like it. Thanks Leebreeze. :). Edited by Smileycorpse 01/20/2009 1:50 pm Report this Post to the Staff
QuickSilver Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 1077 Posts	Posted 01/20/2009 2:04 pm At 16mm I would say it is a 25 Kurus (should be 15mm) This was made from .917 fine gold and should weigh 1.804g giving it an AGW of 0.0532 oz There were 338,172 minted that year. Because the value of gold varies daily it's hard to put a numismatic value on it. However in that condition it is probably not worth much more than bullion value. Here is the ebay number of one currently for sale if you would like to compare with yours. 350148812022 Report this Post to the Staff
