The Turkish 100 Kurush gold coin, also known as the Ottoman Empire's Cemiyet-i İstiklal coin, was minted during the late 19th and early 20th centuries under the reign of various sultans. Composed of 22-karat gold, it typically weighs 7.21 grams and features intricate designs that often include Islamic calligraphy and the tughra, the sultan's royal seal. These coins were used for trade and ceremonial purposes and are now valued for their historical significance, gold content, and craftsmanship, attracting collectors and investors interested in Ottoman-era coins. Since these coins are over 100 years old, their condition varies, and the minting techniques of the time were not as precise as today. As a result, the coins we offer have a tolerance of up to 1% for both weight and purity, which is standard for coins of this era.
According to the original specifications, each gold coin contains 6.60 grams of gold within a total weight of 7.21 grams, with a gold purity of 91.67%. Minor variations in weight and purity are to be expected due to the less advanced production techniques of the past and the wear and tear from these coins having circulated extensively over time. Given their age and usage, such deviations are considered normal. Coins falling within this 1% purity and weight tolerance are considered normal and will not be exchanged.
