Abstract

This research sheds light on the development and effects of coinage manufacturing in Egypt during the period of Mohammed Ali and the impact on its manufacturing, which was firstly done by primitive hand tools producing low quality coinage whether in its general shape or in its inscription. The coinage manufacturing was developed to be made by machines producing good quality of coinage with clear inscription made in the middle of such coinage. This research has clarified the concept of the development of coinage manufacturing and its impact on its shape made by Mohammad Ali and the reasons motivated him to such development. The research also focused on conservations made by Mohammad Ali in The Ottoman Darbkhanah and his establishing to a new Darbkhanah in the year 1243 AH, for the purpose of improving the coinage manufacturing in Egypt to cope with the development of Coinage manufacturing in Europe at that time. In order to clarify this, this research has followed the comparative and analytical method by presenting the impact of the development in the coinage manufacturing before and after Mohammad Ali Era showing the clear difference in the shape and the inscription.
