Can you identify this coin?

Hi all, My name's Christian.

I'm new to this forum. I'm mostly a movie/games prop collector, and I'm trying to create a journal prop containing coins. The journal plays an integral part in the PS3 game 'Uncharted 2: Among Thieves'.

I was hoping you guys could help me out by identifying this coin?: image

This is the page where it appears in the game: image
I've managed to identify the two other coins as Turkish 10 Kurus, but that last one eludes me. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Very cool!

    The unknown one is a transit token from Istanbul.

    Wow spoon, I'm impressed! Either a great use of Google or an impressive memory/resource library!

    I was working on this but apparently not fast enough.

    Appears to be some kind of Turkish token.
    Might be from Istanbul
