No idea maybe Arabic?

Found in the sea by ancient Greek harbor its silver 7.4gr 3.1cm diameter worn as a necklaces looks like. Thx

It appears to be Ottoman Empire Selim III year 1203 except for the diameter and weight. Are you sure about those?

without alloy and dimensions it's impossible to say, but it's probably either Egypt, Libya or Ottoman Empire (most likely for me).



The the reign of the ruler started in 1203 and it's year 5 in the reign, which more or less assures the Ottoman Empire, but without measures, impossible to say more

I gave measurements I'll give again 3.4cm diameter weighs 7.14grams

I can post pictures with the weigh and the measurements if that helps but take into consideration there's a bit missing of this coin so the weight would be less. Also I say silver case it was found in the sea and any other metal except gold would show signs corrosion

​Nevertheless the only silver coin ressembling your images weighs more, so your coin is probably not silver

​But not such a difference

I believe your coin was made to resemble the coin I referenced above. Because of the difference in diameter (38 mm vs. 31 or 34 mm) and the difference in weight (12.8 g vs. 7.14 or 7.4 g) even accounting for the missing material, your coin is most likely a replica. It could still be silver, just not an authentic 1203 year 5 Ottoman 1 Kurush.

I found it in the sea last year where other ancient coins are pottery gold bits and pieces I've posted some here in the forum. Maybe your right but I know it's genuine that I know for sure. Maybe it's a rare one no one has known about yet.

​I agree with you.

there were many, many coin conterfeiters in the Ottoman day, entire villages so employed, and the empire was ruthless in punishing them when discovered.

OK good to know thx
