All,

First, i'd like you to excue my ignorance to alot of coin information.

Second, I inherited alot of coins from my grandfather and i don't know their values. so i'd really appriciate if anyone know someone from Egypt who i can consult on the value of those coins, or Egyptian society for Coins collection.

 

Third, I got a coin of "5 milliemes" Hussein kamel, Sultan of Egypt 1333, 1917-1335. it is a coin with a hole in it.

i don't know its value but it is said to be preciouse, anyone know about it????

 

Thank you all in advance, and i'd reallly appriciate your help.

 

bye

Welcome! We're all still learning here too.

Collector value depends on date, number minted, mint mark, and condition of a coin, including amount of wear, any dents, scratches or cleaning. The Egyptian 5 milliemes may have a mintmark letter (H) below the word Milliemes. There were 37 million minted at the Heaton Mint (with mintmark) and 6.776 million without. Value in the Standard Catalog of World Coins (try a library) ranges from about .25 with heavy wear to $15 if Uncirculated for the 1917H and about .10 to $8 for the plain 1917.

We'll be glad to help with any others.
