The coin shown is a silver ten para, from the reign of Sultan Abdul Aziz. It was struck at the Cairo Mint. The obverse bears the toughra, or signature, of the sultan, with the denomination written below (abbreviated as the letter P for para) with the number 10. A floral design is to the right of the toughra. The reverse carries the ascension date and the text minted in Misr (Misr is Arabic for Egypt). The date is written as AH 1277 year 6, which translates to about 1865 AD. Uslu[1] lists this issue as common.
Recorded mintage: unknown.
Specification: 0.3 g, 0.833 fine silver, 14 mm diameter.
