This coin from Egypt

Http://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces33144.html

The picture shows date of 1958 1377

The date line when entering coin is 1959 1378

Is one wrong or is there something strange about this coin?
This could be a mistake.
Schön says 1377/1958 too.
Schön# A94 (KM# 396)
VF 50€
XF 100€
4.9 Grams

The year is wrong and the text in comments field is wrong (1958 - 1378 instead of 1958 - 1377)

You should make a change request. And if you do so, please add the weight and the Schön#.

I don't have this coin, but in my list is written a diameter of 23.0 mm. I don't know where i know this from.

The "sister" of this coin is

The funny thing is, Schön only counts the 1958/1377 coin of this type as Schön#B94 and the 1960/1380 and 1966/1386 as Schön#102. (KM# for both is 395)
Schön says about the value of the
Schön# B94 (1958/1377)
VF: 50€
XF: 100€
(like the Schön# A94)

For the Schön# 102 (1960/1380, 1966/1386)
XF: 1,50€
UNC: 3€

Both coins are listed with 4.9 grams.
My wife has a 1960/1380 coin (KM# 395, Schön# 102) and i measured a weight of 4.9 grams, a diameter of 23.0 mm and a thickness of 1.7 mm.


What exactly is the difference between Schön# B94 and Schön# 102 i can not see.

The parameters might be the same for the KM#386, because the KM#381 (Schön# 83.2) my wife has, has the same parameters and the KM# 380 (Schön# 83.1) has the same weight and diameter (thickness unknown, because my wife does't have this coin).


If anybody has a KM# 396 and/or a KM#395 1958/1377 and/or a KM# 395 1960/1380 or 1966/1386, please tell us all you can tell about these coins.

What does our Africa Expert Dito know about this?
I have two different dates of the KM#395. The only difference between the 395 and 396 seems to be the absence of the arabic word for Egypt above the arabic 10. I think the dates in the discription need adjusted.

This is from Krause 2016 book

Cita: "Oklahoman"​I have two different dates of the KM#395. The only difference between the 395 and 396 seems to be the absence of the arabic word for Egypt above the arabic 10. I think the dates in the discription need adjusted.

which dates of KM#395 do you have?
Can you show us pictures of both coins?
I do not unerstand why the Schön catalogue count the KM#395 1958/1377 coin as an extra type and the 1960/1380 and the 1966/1386 as the other type.
Showing both could enlighten us if you have 1958/1377 and 1960/1380 (1966/1386 does only exist as proof as far as i know).

The difference of KM#396 and 395 is clear. It is the word "Misr" above the face value. But the Schön devides the KM#395 in two different types.

The following Pictures are from Schön 2016 20th century book.


KM# 396 and 395 1958/1377



KM# 395 1960/1380, 1966/1386
I think i found the difference between KM#395 1958 and 1960:

Is is (in German) "Landesname "Misr" mit Vokalzeichen" and "Landesname "Misr ohne Vokalzeichen".

It is a tiny difference in the word "Misr".

So we have
type KM#396 without "Misr" 1958/1377
type KM#395 with "Misr" and with "Vokalzeichen" (I can't translate this in English) 1958/1377
type KM#395 with "Misr" and without "Vokalzeichen" 1960/1380, 1966/1386

again two pictures:




If anybody has a 10 Milliemes 1958/1377 with Misr (KM# 395) please show a picture.
The picture in the Schön Catalogue is not good enough.
Vokalzeichen is a vowel mark or diacritical mark of sorts...maybe they left a dot or dash out of misr.
