hey guys, I found this 25 piastres note from egypt and it looks very old, there seems to be a signature on one side of the note. What year was it born? and is it rare? :)
Thanks for your help.

Had a look at my catalog and it was printed sometime between 1980 and 1999. I cannot get a more specific date than that because I cannot read Arabic-style dates. But in that condition its value is face value which is 25 Egyptian pounds or about 4 US dollars.

Your note appears to be a fairly recent issue - 1985-1999 - but, sadly, in poor shape. Of little value.You can see a picture of it at this link:-

I think they are dated thus:
An-Egypt-25-Piastres-Note,-Is-It-Old?
Arabic numbers 919120 date Y/DD/MM/Y = 19/12/90 (or for you Americans 12/19/90)

An-Egypt-25-Piastres-Note,-Is-It-Old?
So yours is 907102 = 07/10/92 (or 10/07/92)

You were right about Piastres (sorry ARK) current exchange rate makes it 4 cents! Enjoy your trip to Egypt to spend it
