Offered is a Crown-size silver 20 Piastre, struck at Heaton Mint, and issued for Egypt under the reign of Sultan Hussein Kamil, KM#322, MHC#213. This pleasing example is of the scarcer ‘no inner ring’ variety, and retains good detail, and further benefits from a medium-grey patina which darkens toward the devices. A satisfying, chunky silver.
