Question
i have 500 kurush from 1868 , 36 grams of gold
what is the price , thank you .
Hi Borisov, I assume you mean it is dated 1277. What are the regnal number(s) below the toughra? If you have pictures (not over 1 megabyte each please) you can email them to me at tbirde@psknet.com.
This Turkish coin should weigh 36.06 grams and would contain 1.0638 ounce of gold.
You might also try a library for a copy of the Standard Catalog of World Coins for pictures, values and lots more interesting info.
