This exceptional 1 Qirsh coin from Sudan, minted in 1983, represents a fascinating piece of Middle Eastern numismatic history. Struck in nickel brass, this modest denomination coin carries significant cultural and historical weight, featuring Sudan’s national coat of arms prominently displayed on the obverse, flanked by both the Gregorian (AD) and Islamic (AH) calendar years—a distinctive design choice reflecting Sudan’s dual temporal traditions.

The reverse showcases elegant Arabic inscriptions paired with delicate floral decorative elements, culminating in the denomination marking. Graded in Extremely Fine condition, this specimen exhibits minimal wear, preserving sharp details and vibrant surfaces that speak to careful preservation over four decades.

Weighing 2.56 grams with a diameter of 16.90mm, this coin serves as a tangible window into Sudan’s post-independence era during the early 1980s. For collectors of African coinage, Islamic numismatics, or those focused on historical currency systems, this 1 Qirsh represents an authentic, well-preserved example worthy of serious consideration. Its combination of cultural significance, artistic merit, and excellent condition makes it a valuable addition to any specialized collection.
