Kunker sale 199, lot 237

The Ottoman empire formed in the 1300’s and went through several centuries of expansion to the east and west. By the 1700’s Ottoman political and military power was waning, despite the large geographical extent of its possessions. By the mid-1800’s, several possessions such as Egypt and Tunisia had already sought degrees of autonomy or were occupied by European forces. The Ottoman Empire came officially to and end after World War I, paving the way for a much smaller and politically modern Republic of Turkey.

This specimen was part of lot 237 on Dec 13, 2011 at the Kunker Auction #199 in Osnabruck, Germany, where it sold for 280 euros. The catalog description reads:
