Identification 4 Arabic coins [решено]

5 сообщений • просмотрено 498 раз
Any help with these please? The first 3 are 25mm, the 4th is 27mm. Number 3 is bronze-coloured, the others are all silver-coloured. Even a country would help (I’ve been browsing the catalogue but didn’t find these 4). Thank you!






They are all four from Egypt.

Wouldn't it be much more exciting if you could find it on your own? It's not that difficult and all the tools are here on Numista. If you want to collect world coins you need to know numerals in other scripts, especially Arabic numerals. You'll find that information here: https://en.numista.com/numisdoc/calendar-islamic-30.html
Next step is reading what's on your coin. For example, the first one. If you've looked at the Arabic numerals, you'll see on one side is a big 5. Obviously that's the face value. It doesn't matter you can't read the exact denomination, that 5 will already help you a lot, so you put in the search "5" in the face value box. You also see two dates, via the tool you'll easily find out it's 1389 and 1969. You can see your coin isn't that old and can't be from 1389. So 1389 must be the date in another calendar and 1969 must be the Gregorian date, so in the search you fill 1389 in the "Year" box and 1969 in the "Gregorian date" box. And voila, with these three numerals you can narrow your search down to only 11 coins and you'll immediately find yours: https://en.numista.com/catalogue/index.php?r=&ct=coin&tb=y&tc=y&tn=y&tp=y&tt=y&cat=y&ru=&ca=3&no=&v=5&d=&i=&a=1389&dg=1969&m=&f=&t=&w=&u=&g=&se=&c=&wi=&sw=

Do the same for your second coin and you can narrow your search down to only 11 coins: https://en.numista.com/catalogue/index.php?r=&ct=coin&tb=y&tc=y&tn=y&tp=y&tt=y&cat=y&ru=&ca=3&no=&v=10&d=&i=&a=1404&dg=1984&m=&f=&t=&w=&u=&g=&se=&c=&wi=&sw=

For your third coin there is only one coin in the search, how easy can it be: https://en.numista.com/catalogue/index.php?r=&ct=coin&tb=y&tc=y&tn=y&tp=y&tt=y&cat=y&ru=&ca=3&no=&v=20&d=&i=&a=1378&dg=1958&m=&f=&t=&w=&u=&g=&se=&c=&wi=&sw=

For your fourth coin there are only 10 possibilities: https://en.numista.com/catalogue/index.php?r=&ct=coin&tb=y&tc=y&tn=y&tp=y&tt=y&cat=y&ru=&ca=3&no=&v=10&d=&i=&a=1396&dg=1976&m=&f=&t=&w=&u=&g=&se=&c=&wi=&sw=
Lets try the advance search engine.
Note that ١٩٦٩ = 1969

Thanks both and Essor prof - thanks for the lesson searching. I had just been browsing the catalogue which was actually quite interesting/productive (but slow) and helped me find many others but didn’t hit these 4. Thanks again

I just saw I copied the wrong link for the search for your second coin. This is the correct link (https://en.numista.com/catalogue/index.php?r=&ct=coin&tb=y&tc=y&tn=y&tp=y&tt=y&cat=y&ru=&ca=3&no=&v=10&d=&i=&a=1404&dg=1984&m=&f=&t=&w=&u=&g=&se=&c=&wi=&sw=) and as you can see you would have narrowed your search to only 6 coins, including yours.
