tbirde56 Posted August 22, 2005 Report Share Posted August 22, 2005 Egypt, copper-nickel 2/10 qirsh, AH 1293 with regnal year 10 is equivalent to AD 1886, KM290, 3.201 million minted, worth about $1-$2. You might also try a library for a copy of the Standard Catalog of World Coins for pictures, values and lots more interesting info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

captaincoffee Posted September 16, 2005 Report Share Posted September 16, 2005 Where's the fun if you buy a book that has all the answers? I had a similar problem when I first came across this in my collection: I pulled out a book on Arabic script and translated the date, then hit the internet searching for sites with coins from the Middle East. Once I pinged "Egypt" I knew I was in the right area. BTW, I'm just kidding about getting the book. It's a great resource...I'm just too cheap.
