The coin shown is a copper-nickel one qirsh from the reign of Sultan Mehmed V. The obverse bears the toughra, or signature, of the sultan, with the denomination written below. A flower design is to the right of the toughra. The reverse carries the year of mintage (year 3 of reign) followed by the script 'minted in Misr' (Egypt). The year of accession (1327) is written below, and all the foregoing is enclosed by a ring of stars. The date of the coin translates to 1911 AD. Uslu<sup>[1]</sup> lists this issue as common.

This denomination represents a member of a coinage reform started in 1884 AD. Previous to that date, with a value less than one qirsh were given in the unit 'para'. Though fractional qirshes were treated differently than previous years, qirshes and their multiples resembled pre-reform designs and compositions. The difference was the introduction of copper-nickel qirshes in certain years. Both [[Egypt AH1327 (3)-H qirsh KM-305|silver (KM 292)]] and copper-nickel qirshes are known for this date. This suite of denominations was continued until the collapse of the Ottoman Empire, and subsequent loss of influence in [[Egypt]], in 1914 AD.
