Interesting fact

The 10 Qirsh coin was the first coin in Egypt to feature the new Islamic calendar year, which started in 1413 AH (1992 AD). This was a significant change from the previous Gregorian calendar year that had been used on Egyptian coins until then. The introduction of the new calendar year on the coin was seen as a way to emphasize Egypt's Islamic heritage and identity.
