    I'd say, its 1293 (1876). Ruler: Abdul Hamid II. Egypt. Copper-nickel. Mintage - 5003000 pcs.

    Not very expensive coin. I'd say: from 7 to 10 dollars.

    Actually, there's a secret to these coins. The date on one side is the year that the ruler took power. On the other side is the year of his reign, so you have to add them together. I read this as 1293+13, which is 1887. Krause value is about 50 cents to $2.
