I'm going to go out on a limb and suggest that it might be a coin of some kind.

Pretty obviously a coin...

the difficult part of it is determining when it was created. Since my knowledge about coin dating is non-existing I could only guess.

1. I don't notice any facial structures on the coin. My knowledge from coins of the Byzantine era in Turkey they were almost always depicting the head of the EMPRAH.

2. The material seems to be something pretty common in coins, so I fear you might be dealing with anything in the timespawn of +/- 2000 B.C to about whenever your government starting introducing a standardised monetary system. The lines drawn seem pretty amateuristic which suggests anything medieval or earlier, and since I don't think it is Byzantine you might have struck (not literally since the coin is made of shitty metal) gold here.

If that is Ottoman writing, then I think too highly of them.

If it has arabic script and found in Turkey, 99% chance its an old Ottoman coin.
