No luck on Zeno for this one. Is too much of the design worn off?

Suleiman I (سليمان اول), commonly known as Suleiman the Magnificent in the West and Suleiman the Lawgiver (سلطان سليمان قانونى) in his realm, was the tenth and longest-reigning Sultan of the Ottoman Empire from 1520 until his death in 1566.
Siderokausia, in Ottoman Turkish rendered as ﺳﻴﺪر َﻩ ﻗﺴﯽ Sidrekapsi, was a silver and gold mine active in the Byzantine and Ottoman periods, located in the northeastern Chalkidiki peninsula in northern Greece.
