I bought this alongside a 1/2 millime from British occupied Egypt but this bears a bust I do not know who of ?

It ain't Egypt.

It's Libya.

   Is your coin 18mm across - then it is Idris I ruler (1889-1983) and a 1 Millième denomination.  
Pretty small denomination at that - there were 1,000 of these to one pound.
