Hammer Price:
£550

Egypt, British Protectorate, Hussein Kamil, 20 Piastres, 1917h (KM. 322). Brilliant mint state with superb olive toning, very rare in this condition (£300-350)

The finest specimen of this denomination the cataloguer has ever seen, and certainly superior to that in the R.J. Ford Collection (Spink Auction 88, lot 408)
