*IMITATION OTTOMAN Cedid Mahmudiye1041 viewsThis piece came in a bag of modern Foreign coins - 21 pounds! May be gold inside!!!
The dating did not seem right to me! From the experts at Zeno, I found a similar issue..... This attribution from Zeno:
Imitation of gold cedid mahmudiye (KM, Turkey #645) with distorted inscriptions and fantasy regnal year 78. Made for jewelry purposes throughout the 19th and early 20th century, very likely outside Turkey: similar imitations are met in abundance in South Russia and Ukraine, along the shores of Black and Azov seas, where they were widely used for adorning Gypsy and native Greek women's garments.
So, as you see, it is not exactly a FAKE or a COUNTERFEIT - it is an IMITATION, so the makers could not get into trouble. The regnal years alone would show that the coin was not "real" -
An interesting piece that may turn up from time to time!

NOTICE - The upside-down A in place of the "V" in PROVINCE! This is a known error. While here are MANY fakes, this one is authentic, although a bit damaged. It was mounted in a pewter "dragon plate", and the rim was partially filed to accommodate the plate. I have left a bit of the pewter. It was brought back by a serviceman after World War II.

HUNGARY - BELA III374 viewsHungary -- Bela III (1172-1196) AE Follis. 22 mm. 0.97 grams.
These coins are attributed to Bela III, notice the "islamic" script. Some believe they may have been made for use by Crusaders. Most of the inscriptions are meaningless - I am not sure the maker had any idea what he was copying. Many early Crusader coins of the Levant were made with Arabic-letter inscriptions.
Other coins of Bela III (and that time period of Hungary) show a Byzantine influence. dpaul7

From the Birmingham Museum: In the late 18th century the Royal Mint did not make enough low value coins to satisfy the growing demand for small change. As a result, many towns and cities started producing their own token money. This halfpenny token was issued at Coventry in Warwickshire. It depicts the famous story of Lady Godiva, who supposedly rode naked through the streets to win a reduction in the city’s taxes from her husband, Earl Leofric. The reverse shows that the die cutter had clearly never seen a real elephant!
