Ottoman Empire - 1917, 100 kurus [opgelost]

6 berichten
Good afternoon,

I am trying to confirm if the below coin is what I think it is (namely, this coin: https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces34989.html):




Its diameter is 22 mm. I can't accurately weigh it because it is inside a plastic card.
If it is authentic, it has been counterstamped with a "21" on the obverse. Some of the grainy texture on the reverse comes from the plastic encapsulation and not from the coin.

If y'all could tell me what you think about its authenticity, grade, and value, I'd greatly appreciate it.

Hey John,

Not sure if it's just the plastic, or maybe the photo, but it looks really like one of those imitations used to adorn costumes, except sans hole. Bust it out of it's holder and take new photos is what I say. ;)

​the coin is not mine, so I can't take it out of the holder just yet.
I would not buy it. Seems very strange!

​Agree: if in doubt, pass it up.
