​Indeed.
Yours has clearly the regnal year 78 like this:
Non est totum quod splendet ut aurum
Rijkdom bestaat niet uit het hebben van veel bezittingen, maar in het hebben van weinig behoeften
Relating to what PetrusAscanus said,

Many imitation Ottoman tokens/belly dancer adornments have "impossible" regnal years on them; for example, no Ottoman sultan reigned for 78 years (the record was Suleiman I with 46 years), so that's a useful tool to deduce straight away whether your coin is a coin or not; look for a two digit regnal year.
