Frequently asked questions
What periods and denominations are represented in the Egypt banknote category?
This shop’s Egypt catalog spans dated or period-attributed notes from 1940 through 2009. Represented denominations include 5, 10, 25 and 50 piastres, together with 1, 5, 10, 20 and 100 pounds. The selection covers several distinct catalog groups, from 1940 piastre notes to later pound and piastre issues dated across the 1960s, 1970s, 1980s, 1990s and 2000s. It describes the shop catalog rather than every Egyptian banknote ever issued.
Which notable groups of Egyptian banknotes appear in the catalog?
One notable group consists of low-denomination piastre notes associated with 1940, including Pick 182, 184, 185, 187, 188 and 189 references. Another broad group covers later issues such as Pick 36–67, with denominations from 25 piastres to 100 pounds. The catalog also includes later 5- and 10-piastre notes identified as Pick 190 and Pick 191. These groupings reflect this shop’s records, not a complete survey of Egypt’s paper money.
How can I identify an Egypt banknote using its Pick reference?
Start with the Pick number shown in the product title or model, such as Pic 37a, 50f or 62n. The main number identifies the catalog type, while a suffix can distinguish a listed variety within that type. For example, the Egypt catalog represents Pick 37a and 37b for 1-pound notes, as well as several Pick 50 and Pick 62 suffixes. Match the complete reference—including its letter—with the denomination, stated date or period, and any signature information.
How can similar Egyptian denominations be distinguished in this catalog?
Use several fields together rather than denomination alone. The catalog contains repeated denominations across different dates and Pick types, including 25 piastres, 50 piastres and 1 pound. A 50-piastre note may be listed under references such as Pick 36b, 43, 58b or 62e, while 1-pound records include Pick 37, 44 and 50 varieties. Compare the full Pick reference, suffix, date or date range, and listed signature number before identifying a note.
What should a buyer check when comparing Egypt banknote listings?
Compare the denomination, full Pick reference, suffix, stated year or date range, and any signature detail included in the description. All represented product titles use the grade designation UNC, but buyers should still rely on the individual listing information when selecting a specific catalog variety. Similar-looking records may differ by suffix or signature—for example, Pick 50d, 50e, 50f and 50l are separately identified 1-pound varieties. A catalog entry should not be taken by itself as confirmation that an item can be purchased.
Why are signatures important among the Egyptian banknotes represented here?
Signature information helps distinguish several varieties recorded in this Egypt catalog. Some listings use numbered signatures, including Signature 11, 12, 14, 15, 18, 19, 20 and 22. The L1940 Pick 182 group also includes named signatures such as A.A. Ismail, Loutfy and A.R.A. Meguid, alongside another variety marked Signature 18. Because not every record supplies signature information, collectors should use it as one identification feature together with the Pick suffix, denomination and listed date.
