King Farouk was the second ruler of the Kingdom of Egypt, coming to the throne in 1936. The coinage of his reign was similar to his father, King Fuad I. He was, among other things, an avid coin collector and pieces from his collection still circulate in the market today. He abdicated after widespread discontent in 1952, at which point Egypt became a republic and officially terminated the monarchy.
This coin is a copper-nickel five milliemes. The obverse has the portrait of Farouk, and the reverse has the text 'Kingdom of Egypt' in Arabic, the date (1941 AD - AH 1360), and the denomination.
Recorded mintage: 11,500,000.
Specification: copper-nickel.
Catalog reference: KM 363.
