Are you sure that it is Ottoman? and may we learn where you found it exactly?

I'm only assuming Ottoman, as Akches have turned up in the same field, including one a few metres away, which is the site of a medieval village that no doubt perished in the Ottoman occupation. This is in the Vinkovci area of Eastern Croatia.

Well, it maybe a dirham of Selim II (1566-1574)
Obverse
Sultan Selim Shah azze nasruhu bin Sultan Suleiman Shah fi'l berri ve'l bahr
Reverse
Halladallahu mulkuhu wa sultanuhu, in the middle mint place

Mint may be Baghdad, Haleb or Amid

Thank you. Any advice on coin rotation, as I am sure I do not have it right!
