1 Qirsh silver coin minted for Egypt during the Ottoman period under the reign of Sultan Abdul Hamid II, corresponding to year 29 of his reign. It features a typically Ottoman design, with the imperial tughra finely traced on the obverse, with elegant lines and a balanced composition, surrounded by well-defined vegetal elements. The reverse bears the Arabic inscriptions with the denomination and date, framed by a symmetric crown in a classic Oriental style. The specimen retains complete and crisp reliefs, with broad fields and good overall detail; however, there is evidence of prior cleaning, noticeable in the texture of the fields and the altered luster, which is why it receives an Uncirculated Details grade, maintaining a solid and attractive visual presence.
