What is this coin?

I got this coin from a foreign collection, didn’t know what it was but thought it looked neat! I’ve tried looking this up but have had no luck. Could you help me identify this coin?

What is this coin?

I just tried looking it up on Numista and couldn’t find it. I tried photo search and a discription, neither worked.

Egypt 2/10 Qirsh - Mehmed V can’t see the characters on the coin clearly enough but look on numista.com and search for it. Scroll down and you can look at the characters to narrow down/pinpoint a date.

I could give another post with the reverse image.

Well the character in the center is an Arabic 2. I would venture a guess that it was Northern Africa or Middle East. Egypt, Lybia, Oman, Sudan. You have an image of the obverse?
