Thread: Unique Pieces Of My Ottoman Collection 2

Unique Pieces Of My Ottoman Collection 2,
1 st one is 1 kurush og Sultan Mustafa the second,
2nd one is 10 kurush of Sultan Reshad..
My question is whether the crack in the first coin lowers the value of the coin.I think is it is mint error..

Hello

The crack on the first one certainly affects the value of the coin in a negative manner, otherwise, it is probably unique due to this specific mint defect
Please keep on posting your ottoman coins ( and the others too ) !
Waiting for the #3 !

Cheers
Philippe

Dear Philippe,
I have another coin with the same mint error.Somehow this is not a rare mint error for ottoman coins bigger than 30 mms.
I will post #3 a.s.a.p

Hello numizmatikci and everybody here in oriental coins !

Just wanted to share these 2 which arrived today
Not identified yet completely, but should have been minted by the Ottomans in Tunis
They will help us waiting for #3 ( the Steel penny was found in a so called "unsearched ebayesque roll" )

They are really wonderful coins.Where did u get them from?Especially the copper one is soo sweet

Guys, May be these coins are from Ottoman Empire as well?
Help me identify and value it, please

Hi Numizmatikci

These 2 coins were dug from...feebay
Actually they are both silver - or at least debased silver or billon hence the copperish look ! )
Still waiting for you Ottoman series #3 and i will put some more here soon !

Hi again

Just got these tiny uncleaned ottomans in my mail today ( for sure, will have to post the result after some cleaning )
For the moment let's enjoy them "raw" :

In fact raw is best most of the time,after cleaninng they lose their experience,who touched them,who kissed them
