Turkey 20 Para KM# 761

[Prosit]

I have beaten my head against this coin for two hours and it still resists.

Evidently it is a coin from Turkey, evidently dated 1327 (1909-1915), evidently a 20 para, evidently KM# 761.

If all that is correct where the heck do you find the Regnal year?

Regnal year 6 in think.

The regnal year is in the red oval. On islamic coins of this period, there is usually relevant information below the toughra: denomination or regnal year or date.

I included an exerpt from Richard Plant's Arabic coins and how to read them, because he explains better than I can that this coin (his drawing shows a coin from the same series) is very significant for Turkish history.

Thanks for the help. So this is year 6 and the honorific is Reshat.
