Hi, thank you for the answer. Do you have any idea, how I could indentify the material from which the coin is made of. The coin matches the parameters of the Atik Cifte Rumi.

There is always the basic specific gravity test by water displacement. But if the coin is an alloy (which is likely) then all you know is the approximate specific gravity of the alloy without knowing the composition.

However, it is also possible that the coin is a mostly pure metal like silver, copper, or tin. In that situation, a specific gravity test will get you an adequate answer.
