 Why This Is a Smart Buy

• Historic milestone: Issued shortly after the end of the Kingdom, marking the birth of the Republic of Egypt in 1953 — a transformative moment in national history.

• Transitional rarity: Coins from the 1953–1958 period were produced in smaller quantities than later UAR issues, making them less common in circulation today.

• Durable alloy: Struck in aluminum-bronze, offering both resilience and a warm, golden tone prized by collectors.

• Affordable entry point: A perfect low-cost addition to world coin type sets or Middle Eastern historical collections.

• Condition-driven value: High-grade examples (AU–UNC) are increasingly scarce, with long-term appreciation potential as early republican-era coins gain recognition.

In short: This coin stands as a bridge between Egypt’s royal and republican histories — a collectible of genuine historical and aesthetic value.
