I'm sorry, I know this forum is lousy with Arabic coins. But this one's been giving me trouble! I can't find a denomination, and the last digit of the date appears to have chipped off. I think the tughra identifies it as a coin of Abdul Aziz, but it's a bit worn and from there I'm lost.

Here's a shoddy closeup of the date:

1327 AH possibly either 1/40 or 1/20 of a Quirsh, Egypt.

It's 1/20 Qirsh. The 1327 is a bit misleading. On the second picture bottom, there is hardly seen ٤ digit. It's Arabic 4. Meaning the 4th year of Muhammad V. So it's actually 1331 AH (~1913 AD).
