elf Egypt Br Occup 2 Piastres AH 1338 AD 1920 Scarce

Description

KM 325, one year type, issued for Egypt independent of the Ottoman Empire. Occupation by British forces had begun around 1880, during the building of the Suez Canal; it continued until 1922. Five cent size silver coin.
The issues of 1920 are much more difficult to locate than the similar issues of 1916 and 1917.  Original mintages are much lower than the 1917 mintages, and the 1920s were most likely severely remelted.
