1938-1357 King Farouk 2 millieme

[EgCollector]

Hi all,

I need to know the name of this error and does it affect the value of the coin or not?

The number 7 in the Hijri Date 1357 is not struck properly.

Please help.
I will post pics for both obverse and reverse just to help evaluate the coin condition "may be this helps"

Thanks

It looks like a 'Strikethrough', which is where a lump of (possibly) grease was on the coin when it was minted.

[EgCollector]

Pardon my ignorance, does this classify it as an error ? 

[EgCollector]

I have placed three arrows where i think this might be an error;

The 1st to the right where the number 7 is not struck properly
The 2nd "Middle" where part of the lettering seems not prominent
The 3rd to the left where i think there is a small die crack.

I would appreciate any comments.

Thanks

This is the only coin I have, so I will borrow this pic from world coin catalog

As far as I know [Krause is my reference] that Egyptian coins in the time of King Farouk were minted in either;
BP – Budapest, Hungary
H – Birmingham, England
KN – King's Norton, England
So, finding an error in these coins would be something special at least to me.

In this coin we are examining, and according to a friend's opinion uptill now there is THREE errors in the same coin.

a die crack,
and probably a filled die (middle arrow),
As for the 7 in the date, Could be a piece of metal on the right that got pressed on to the coin when it got struck

Would appreciate any comments.

Pardon my ignorance, does this classify it as an error ? 

In my opinion, it does.  I collect these types of errors.

The following are examples of some strikethoughs.

Strikethrough

In this case it would be better described as a die fill.  The die is filled with 'grease'

I coudn't see the die crack on your coin.  This is an example of a die crack.

Very interesting Yass.

What about the die crack, [the left arrow] do you agree.
