yes I would probaly date yours in the 1870-1920 period but that is just a eductated guess region is hard to pinpoint. Tirri would not be my choice in using as a precise dating and location decision. Elgood is a better reference and a few other authors that I can think of. I like the last bullet mould shown. I will get some pics of some various ones I have. Regarding the greek examples of measures they do not seem to have much of a greek motif to them turkey for the one and afghanistan for the other would seem more likely.
