I have a Turkish 50 Kurus coin from 2022 is all gold colour and not silver and gold .Weird or what? Any ideas anyone? Valuable?Wrong blank?

See attached photos 1 x 2022,  1 x 2014 . The coin on the left is all gold . 

Doesn't show up very well on photos, but there is clearly no silver outer on the left one Regards, Binman

Very probably plated with some yellowish metal by someone. You see that a lot everywhere.

Thanks, But I've never seen that before. The text is also larger and the reverse centre looks silver. Regards

Probably not. Both sections are brass and with some environmental damage/oxidation being similar colors would not be unusual.

 

Hi, But why is the text larger? Also the “ Goldie”  2022 weighs 6.72 and the 2014  6.83 grammes.  Regards

Both weights are typical for this coin, well within the normal weight tolerance. Small changes in text size in different years happens quit often.  You have two very normal coins both worth 50 Kuruş.

I don't think so, sadly the photos do not do them justice. The “ goldie” has not been altered by coatings or chemicals and I have not seen any like this on the internet.

Obviously everyone else cannot see what you have. It appears you have something unique, rare and most likely will fetch an amazingly high amount of money at auction. You should investigate that!

Hi, I hope you are right. Who knows? We will see. Regards

keep Us updated on what the auctioneers tell you, or once you get a solid offer, which I’m 100% sure you will ! 

Child with a yellow felt tip pen can make everyone a millionaire 👍 this what it looks like to me, kids play with pens and use them everywhere, then I guess it was thrown back into circulation and found by the lucky binman
