Unidentified Islamic coin 2
« on: September 23, 2006, 10:42:04 pm »
Hi this coin part of a lot of 3 islamic silvers that I have just won-I haven't got a clue about islamic issues so any help you can give to ID would be much appreciated :)

Thanks,

Andy

Probably the Ottoman Turks (Othmanlis).  Circa 1450, AR Akche, about 1g?

Ottoman AR Akce Suleyman I 926AH mint is probably either Üsküp or Siroz.
I will have to look into the mint closer

The mintname is definitely Kratova.
