I got this coin, very worn down. The only thing I can tell tell for sure is that there is some type of Arabic writing on both sides. There is a face on one side, looks like the statues from Easter Island, but more likely a guy in a Fez style hat. The other side is too worn too tell. The edge is like a modern US Dime. The pic is out of focus but the best I can get. It is .75 inches across.

It appears to be an Egyptian 10 qirsh from 1924

Nice one Bacchus, googled that one, and not it. But close, its a
Egyptian 5 Piastres silver from 1923. Face is the same, but the back is different.

Many thanks for the tip.
Rest in Peace
