Hello guys,

Attached are two photos which I am finding hard to identify...

I have an idea that this coin is from the Ottoman Empire Abdul Hamid the second but,

My research online was not successful as I could not find anything that matches this coin.

Either the dates were wrong or the signatures.

Thanks all in advance for your answers.

Mams.

The last picture is too blurry to read the date, but Abdülhamid II has his coins dated 1293, so I will assume that is what this one is. That being said, this coin is Egyptian, with the Gregorian date of 1893. It would be either 1/40 or 1/20 qirsh depending on what its diameter is (17.6 millimetres for the former and 20.1 millimetres for the latter).

FYI - In the future, try and use the CCF Free Image Optimizer to remove much of the blank background, then the coin can be shown larger.
