    I am back again with a new batch of Islamic coins I need help identifying. Ideally I'd like to get the country, year and denomination for all, but any and all information will be welcome. I'll be posting photos in two groups since there are six and cointalk only lets me upload three at a time. Thanks!

    It's hard to tell exactly which year the Egyptian coin is. I'm going by the date on the reverse side. There is the reign date underneath the tughra, which on your coin is hard to make out since it is really worn and the image is somewhat upside down.

    I did not calculate, I used the chart in the kraus catalog :D
    I do not have the 1800-1899 book so I can not get the details ..

    Thanks for the help, both of you. I always forget about Sudan when I am trying to identify these types of coins.
