Hi Daryl,

  The Stamp on this 1906 post card looks very identical to Yours, http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Stamp-Ottoman-20-paras-red-NASRE-Egypt-German-Church-postcard-1906-to-Australia-/370810323244?nma=true&si=emxN9TdEFi1Kz%252BM2TiEfsBG51LQ%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557

https://www.google.co.uk/search?biw=1024&bih=630&tbm=isch&sa=1&q=stamp+20+tughra+red&btnG=

 It is the fifth image on the second row of the search results.  :)
I also found a similar stamp with value 5 instead of 20 and it said it was from Turkey around 1905 date.

EDIT: This page says 1917 for the 20 Paras.
