Another look at coin front

I have a bunch of coins that display the date like that. Here's a couple of them:
 
Your coin is from Egypt.
The date you are looking at is called the Accession date. It is AH1263. In the Christian calendar that date equals 1846. The Arabic word "Misr" which means Egypt is above the Accession date.
The Regnal year is directly under the three stars. I think it is 1. That would date this coin 1846. I can't tell the denomination unless you can show me a picture of the other side. Not being an expert in Arabic coinage, this is the best I can do.
Hope this helps.
