I don't have much knowledge about Arabic coins. All I can read is:
"10", "1293".

Smaller than a cent, 2.0 grams.
The seller provided no description..

The coin is a 10 para from Ottoman Turkey. "1293" is the Accession date of Sultan Abdul Hamid II. The regnal year is in tiny numbers below the tougra; it looks like "28" on yours; that would be 1902 AD.

Believe it or not, the coin contains silver; it's officially .100 fine. KM# 744.
