The modal verb 'could' is incorrectly used here to express present inability. The correct modal verb is 'can't' to indicate that we do not use coins now. Also, 'Egyptian' should be plural 'Egyptians' when referring to people collectively.

✓ Actually now as an Egyptian person, we Egyptians do not use coins right now because I can't.
The noun 'Egyptian' should be plural 'Egyptians' when referring to the group of people collectively.

The phrase 'I would say it, it is expired now' has an unnecessary comma and repetition of 'it'. Removing the comma and the repeated 'it' improves clarity and correctness.

The phrase 'the coins' is unnecessarily definite; 'coins' without 'the' is more natural here. Also, the repeated 'I' is a typographical error and should be removed.
