Hi Raatcharch, and [img] to the forum. The coin looks "smushed" because someone made a coin sandwich with yours in the middle and then applied...

Hate to tell you this ajm, but I copied your small photo into my picture adjustment software (which isn't the best), and when I lightened it up...

It's spelled "toughra" Rick. I agree that the coin just doesn't have the "look and feel" I associate with Turkish gold. In defense of your...
