The pictured small gold coin was presented to me some 10 years ago but bears no indication of value . I think it may have been on the 75th anniversary of the founding of the Turkish Reublic (1998) but can't find it on any of the coin web sites that I have searched . Its diameter is 21mm

I don't have a catalog with me right now, but these coins were minted in the 60s with Kemal Ataturk's head posthumous. Yours is from 1966 (1923+43).
There were 50piastres (3.60g), 100 piasters(7.25g), 250piasters(18.01g) and 500piasters(36.12g). All of them had the exact same design, but the size/weight varried.

At 21mm, yours is a 100 kurush. Listed in the Krause world coin catalogue as KM# 855, at the back of the listing for Turkey with the other "bullion coins". It's .917 fine (22 karat), mintage 56,000, worth more than BV in EF and above.
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
