Egypt [Farouk] 1944 / 1363 2 Qirsh [solved]

6 posts
Hi.
Would someone please correct the 32k mintage shown for this small hexagonal coin ?
Even the Numista rank of 12 surely shows that the mintage must be in the millions, and that 32k can't be right ?
We have this similar thread from a while back:
https://en.numista.com/forum/topic52463.html

Most likely a mis-transliteration from a source with rounded numbers, or numbers listed in thousands (e.g. having 32.000 for 32 thousand thousands, aka 32 million.)

Contact Amer about it, he's the Egypt referee.
I have no idea aside from what's mentioned in Krause
I've added a note in the comments section about that, thank you

​I understand we are using Krause SCWC as a point of reference, but on that thread I linked we had two Egyptian members confirming that the real mintage is 32.000.000, and especially with so many members owning it and having it for swap, makes me 99% sure that it is Krause at fault here.

Maybe you can change the number and edit the note a little bit, to "Krause has a possible mistake in mintage, listed as 32k"?
I agree, I've fixed that now
I just didnt check the link you shared earlier
