Another Sudanese knife !

I think this one is Sudanese.

Is the blade shape rare ?

Does anyone know what the coin is ?
The date appears to be 1293

Overall length is 15 inches
Blade length 10 1/4 inches

Regards

That is a Hadendoan dagger with a rarer than usual blade shape 1293 AH is 1876? Nice find

If you you check some of my threads you will see a similar style blade to match yours.
