A shot of the plastron is usually helpful. That shot can also help people sex it. Also, how big is it?

I don't know what it is but gosh is it cute.

Hey , uploaded another pciture with its plastron , hope that will help .
Also by Old , how old could it be ??

Wow! This one looks old!

Sorry to hear the owner died. Is there other one also left behind? Normally (of cause, I'm not normal) people kept more then one tortoise as pet.

Waiting for answer too.

Upon closer inspection, I am also inclined to say Hermanns, though it is unusually light colored! I think HermanniChris needs to chime in on this one.

Looks to me like it could be a very old Greek tort, but I could be wrong.

I think our best bet in I.D.ing this tortoise comes from @HermanniChris

I would say an old Greek, but Chris will know for sure.

Yvonne is right. That's a beautiful, old male Greek (T. g. ibera).
