Egypt's coinage in the early 1830s was effectively the coinage of Muhammad Ali Pasha's personal ambitions. Having broken Ottoman financial control in practice if not in law, he established the Bulaq Mint in Cairo and began issuing a reformed currency series in 1834 — the first coherent Egyptian monetary system in the modern sense. The 10 Qirsh in gold sat near the top of this inaugural hierarchy.
Bulaq production of this type was limited and brief. The .875 fineness was a deliberate departure from earlier debased issues circulating in the region.
