{"product_id":"1919","title":"1929 Egypt 2 Piastres","description":"\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis 1929 Egyptian silver two piastres is a notable one-year type from King Fuad I’s reign, reflecting Egypt’s early modern coinage under British influence. Struck at the Budapest Mint, it features a refined royal portrait and a relatively limited mintage of about 500,000 pieces, making it a desirable pick for collectors of Egyptian and Islamic-heritage coins. Its combination of historical context and elegant design makes it a compelling addition to a serious collection.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eObverse: A uniformed bust of King Fuad I facing left, wearing a fez, designed by Percy Metcalfe.
