Obverse: محمود Reverse: ٢١ ضرب في طرابلس غرب ١٢٢٣
Context
Diameter varies: 27-29 mm Type A Year AH1223//20: © Image courtesy of Stephen Album Rare Coins For regnal year '20', the dot for the zero of the regnal year was rather weakly engraved, and seems to have almost completely disappeared on most specimens, reminiscent of the 1922-D American cent that lacks the letter D. This would have been the result of wear on the dies used for this type. Both KM and USK incorrectly list the regnal year as '2'.
