Comment
This would appear to be part of a made-up presentation set with the two gold coins having been replaced by examples struck in brass.Interesting fact
The Pattern 25 Pounds (OAU; Brass Essai) 1398 (1978) from Sudan is a rare and unique coin that was never officially released into circulation. It was minted as a trial or sample coin, and only a small number of them were produced. As a result, it is highly sought after by collectors and can fetch a high price at auction.
