<p>[QUOTE="PaddyB, post: 1661303, member: 40017"]Well I don't think the first coin is KM 306 - if it were the accession date would read 1327, but I am pretty sure it reads 1293 - which is KM 299. The Regnal year is 30 - Arabic 3 followed by a dot for zero. (In my Krause the date decoder is on page 16.) So I stick by Abdul Hamid II, KM 299 date 1904.</p><p><br /></p><p>As to the smaller 5/10 Qirsh the detail is too obscured for me to be sure! I can't remember where the regnal year should be, and without one in hand I can't work it out. They could also be KM 291 - which is a very similar design, just with the earlier accession date.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
