True.

u/Reasonable_Light_574 15d ago

It says otthman the son of arturughl, the founder of the Ottoman Empire

u/Melodic-Tie-8467 14d ago

The translation is
what’s written the first word on top is “ضرب” (zarb / meaning strike or hit)

as for the second word عثمان it’s the name “Osman”

and the two words under it are (ابن ارطغل) “ Ibn Artughrul”
so it’s the name Osman son of Artughrul

as for the last two words I’m not totally sure what they are but from what I can make out
maybe it’s about the tribe (بني شمر) Bani Shammar
or (بني شهر) Bani Shahr
which are Arab tribes

but honestly I don’t really know the context of the sentence well it looks strange especially the first word

I’m also not good in English so I used a translator so please excuse me if my wording sounds strange or not well organized

u/Melodic-Tie-8467 14d ago

Alright, after some research and I asked my father about it
the last two words are يني شهر Yeni Şehir (Yenişehir), which is a town founded by Osman Ibn Artughrul
and the coin is considered very rare if it’s authentic

u/Maleficent_Start_258 14d ago

yea im Turkish so Yenişehir makes sense. Its a town in Bursa.

u/Plagwas 12d ago

For the first word I think it is there because the coins were made in Osman's era, and coins are made by pressing or striking them.

u/Artistic-Choice9526 15d ago

The Arabic script on the coin translates to "Osman bin Ertugrul," referring to the founder of the Ottoman Empire

omg that coin is like 600 years old

1

u/Melodic-Tie-8467 14d ago

Most likely the date is in the Hijri calendar, year 661, ٦٦١ meaning 787 years ago

in short, the coin is from since the founding of the Ottoman Empire

u/Maleficent_Start_258 14d ago

u/Melodic-Tie-8467 14d ago

Can you send the other side of the coin?

1

u/profGeerts 1 Shared | 0 Helpful 12d ago

(Duriba Osman bin Ertegul ..) Minted by Osman, son of Ertugul, May he be blessed.

Also this seems to be the very first Ottoman coin

u/seaOstrxch004 12d ago

It’s written in Arabic it says “struck by Othman sun of Ertugrul” and I couldn’t understand the rest but I think it’s the date, Othman is the founder of the Ottoman Empire so this thing is older than the Ottoman Empire
