[QUOTE="paddyman98, post: 2771154, member: 44615"]Hi all, I just wanted to share this find of a 25 Kurus from Turkey. It was a bit of a challenge to get it since it was inside a electrical power vault underneath a grill of a sidewalk in front of my job. [ATTACH=full]639064[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]639065[/ATTACH] For weeks I would look at it wondering what it could be. [ATTACH=full]639067[/ATTACH] I took pictures of it to enlarge with no luck with the ID'ing [ATTACH=full]639066[/ATTACH] Today I devised a plan...using a long metal rod I stuck Blue Tape on one end to try and get the coin to stick. [ATTACH=full]639068[/ATTACH] After 2 attempts the coin stuck but fell both times for pulling up to quickly. In my 3rd attempt I got it! [ATTACH=full]639069[/ATTACH] And here it is! [ATTACH=full]639070[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]639071[/ATTACH] I hope you enjoyed my little journey in getting this coin :woot:[/QUOTE]
