    Ottoman Empire Mehmed V 500 kurush gold coin: 1327 Hijri (1910) reign year 4, Istanbul mint, gold .917, weight 36.08 g.
    Countermark looks like combination of numbers and letters.
    There are well known re - strikes of Ottoman gold coins of lower fineness (18K instead of 22 K), but they are usually without countermarks.
    Thanks for helping.

      probably hij?’? sequence and abjad? it is not important meaning is w??ed wa-’ishrun i think which is 21

      this is coming from the United Arab Emirates, bullion is always a problem , there is legislation about this i believe Fujairah or Dubai
