from what i know of these i would say ottoman empire, late 1800s to early 1900s

Agree. The funky symbol in the center is called a tugrha. This are often difficult for the Western eye to indentify accurately. Just do a Google image search on "tugrha" and start comparing.

I have a friend who is from Pakistan and reads Arabic as well as Urdu. I've asked him if he might be able to read or identify what it is.
