    Can you try to give me an explanation of the symbols (or wordings?) I have 2 more of these but they seem different.

    That style of bird is also found on Syrian coins. People often confuse the two. The two different ones you have will be either a different denomination from Egypt or from Syria.

    On the left is the date in Arabic numerals in the Western Calendar. On the right is the date in the Muslim calendar, also in Arabic numerals.

    Top picture bottom of coin and bottom picture top of coin both read Arab Republic of Egypt. 7/8 o'clock bottom picture is 1972, 4/5 o'clock is 1392. The center says '10' (١٠) and below that reads qirsh.

    I can't quite make out what's said immediately below the eagle. But the piastres mentioned above is what we would say in English.

    It is actually a 10 Qirush (probably the same meaning) with a value of 10 Piastres.. The Bird is a Falcon.

    That site in the screenshot should have used Arab Republic of Egypt, verbatim translation of the coin and also since UAR wasn't recognized past 1971...
