About OttoCollect

About the Project

OttoCollect is a comprehensive catalog and collection management platform dedicated to collectors of banknotes from the Ottoman Empire and from countries or authorities that were formerly under Ottoman rule, dating back to 1840.

Our educational mission is to document, share, and preserve the numismatic history of the Ottoman Empire and its successor countries and authorities. We aim to build a vibrant community of collectors across regions that share this historical heritage-including Turkey, Jordan, Egypt, Lebanon, Syria, Israel, Albania, Bulgaria, Montenegro, and more.

We provide detailed information on Ottoman banknotes as well as banknotes issued by various countries that were once part of the Ottoman realm, from 1840 to the present day. This makes our platform uniquely valuable to collectors who often expand their collections to include Ottoman currencies after completing collections from their home countries.

OttoCollect enables collectors to track their personal collections, share images, contribute to the catalog, engage in discussions, and connect with fellow enthusiasts worldwide. All of this makes OttoCollect an ideal platform for banknote collectors, numismatists, and historians.
