  1. Hallo , I would like to ask if you can recognize this coin. Is not flat but kind a 3D or medailon
Welcome to Numista. Without weight , diameter and better photos, it is difficult to say for certain but it looks to be a crude imitation representing itself to be a gold ottoman coin of this era.

agree. the date, mint name, tughra, and scripts have all been botched.
it might be very old, contemporary fake. there were whole towns employed making bad coins in the ottoman era,
it could also be a legitimate authorized not geld issue, also contemporary, but I have no references for you.

usually we call this kind of piece costume jewelry, but this one has no hole! :.
