Unlisted in KrauseInteresting fact
The Pattern 50 Pounds (15th Hijrah Century; Copper Piedfort) 1400 (1979) from Sudan made of Copper is a rare and unique coin that was never officially released into circulation. It was minted in 1979 as a pattern coin, meaning it was produced as a trial or sample coin to test the design and production process, but it was never approved for circulation. As a result, only a small number of these coins were minted, making them highly sought after by collectors.
