Interesting fact
The Pattern 10 Milliemes coin from Sudan was designed by the renowned British artist and sculptor, Edward Bawden. Bawden was known for his minimalist and modernist style, which is reflected in the clean lines and simple design of the coin. The coin features a portrait of the Sudanese king, Mohammed Naguib, on one side, and a depiction of a traditional Sudanese boat on the other. The use of bronze as the material for the coin adds a touch of warmth and depth to the design, making it a unique and interesting piece for collectors.
