Egypt 100 Qirsh 1886

This beautiful coin was minted only in 1886AD, 1293AH by the Islamic calendar, Murad V, and regnal year 12. The coin contains 0.2391 troy ounces of gold, so it can never be worth less than its base value (BV), that is, the value of the gold it contains.

worn: gold value (BV)
average circulated: BV + $100 US dollars
well preserved: BV + $200
fully uncirculated: BV + $300

The coin in our picture is a very nice example. It was sold by Baldwin's in London for 340 British pounds (about $530 US dollars) during a 2014 auction.

CoinQuest thanks Baldwin's for use of their coin photo.
