Hello and thank you all for the intrest in my Thread I have recntly purchased a bracelet with some coins in it Il post pictures as best as i can and hopefully sombody can help me id it! Thank you All Alexandra!
You might as well remove the coins from the bracelet, that is mordernish and if silver, worth its scrap metal value, other wise, junk. I can see an Ottoman coin, possibly Egypt, dated AH1223, 2 Spanish 2 reales coins, somehting Austro-Hungarian then I lost track of which ones I had seen. As coins, being holed will prevent them fetching more than spacefiller money but none are common so they are not just scrapsilver even in that condition. Fresh pictures free of the loops would help.
Will remove now just pucheased it From my little googling found the 2x 2 reales 1724 and...???? One Ludovic one Philipe Also the 1857 franz Joseph one The other ottoman can't identify And also the other 2 ones Will post more pics in a few moments
The two ones left unident are the most beaten up ... hope sombody will have an ideea about what they are Also if you could suggest what would the value of them all woyuld be in this poor conditions!
Phillip V. One of the most beaten up has a toughra, the imperial Ottoman sultan's mark, and the other may be similar. I really have no idea what the US market is like for such coins. Someone else will have a more useful opinion. It certainly won't be very much, but you have a handful of historical interest representing the wrecked relics of three Empires. The Spanish,which embraced the world in the 16th and 17th Centuries, and was in decline in the 18th C, the Austro Hungarian Empire, the most recent but really least significant of the three, crumbling but hanging on when your coin was made, and the Ottoman Empire that at one time ruled all North Africa and the Middle East. By the time of your coins it was a hollow shell, ruling in name only. Add a beat up Victorian sixpence and you'd have a representative of another great empire in its last days before decline, and possibly a modern dime to represent the last years of US hegemony before power moves East.
