Description
A gold 50 kurush coin issued by Sultan Mehmed V of the Ottoman Empire during his reign (AH 1327-1336 / AD 1909-1918). These coins, often referred to as “mint visit” coins, were struck at various mints visited by the Sultan. Specifically, the 50 kurush gold coin minted during a visit to Manastir (AH 1327 year 3, corresponding to AD 1911/1912). Struck in .917 fine gold, the Turkish 50 Kurush Mehmed V Coin is not only a beautiful work of art but also a valuable store of wealth. Its gold content makes it a robust investment, combining heritage with material value.
The gold 50 kurush coins can have different dates and mint locations, making them unique and highly valued by collectors. The obverse of this coin features a Wreath with seven stars at the top, and the reverse features a Wreath with one star at the top.
