This specimen was lot 3543 in Goldberg sale 62 (Beverly Hills, February 2010), where it sold for $218.50. The catalog description[1] noted, "Egypt. 20 Piastres, 1923. Faud I, 1917-1936. Civilian bust to right. Reverse: Legend. PCGS graded MS-64." This one-year type has traditionally been dismissed as a bullion coin but deserves a better fate.

Recorded mintage: 65,000.

Specification: 1.7 g, .875 fine gold, .0478 troy oz AGW.

Catalog reference: Fr-105 (formerly Fr-30); KM-339.
