| Reverse description | A circle of twenty raised hands arranged around the entire periphery of the field, evoking unity and national solidarity, commemorating the 20th anniversary of Algerian independence. At the centre, radiating sunburst lines rise from the lower field, symbolising the dawn of independence, above which the numeral '20' is inscribed. Below the sunburst, a two-line Arabic legend reads 'من أجلك يا وطني' (For you, my country). The composition is bold and allegorical, rendered in high relief against a plain field. |
