Cool site Q, it goes right on the favorit list, but i fear that finding my coin would be like finding the famous needle in a haystack.  ;D

Hi Kim,

Definitely an Ottoman akce.  Even though it is in Turkish, I have used this website:
http://www.osmanliparalari.com/Osmanli-Paralari-Izne-Tabi-,LA_208-2.html#labels=208-2

I have attributed my Turkish akces using this website.
Hope this helps

David
