| 背面描述 | The square reverse, oriented diagonally, presents a finely detailed high-relief depiction of the ornate arched Main Gate of the American University of Beirut as seen from the interior, with decorative stonework and a beaded archivolt surrounding the central aperture occupied by the shaped agate insert. The stone-paved approach and flanking masonry walls with recessed panels are rendered with architectural precision. The legend 'MAIN GATE' is inscribed along the upper right edge, while 'AMERICAN UNIVERSITY OF BEIRUT' and '150th ANNIVERSARY' appear in two lines along the lower left edge of the coin. |

Issued as part of Banque du Liban's ongoing commemorative series celebrating Lebanese universities, this piece honors the American University of Beirut, founded in 1866 by American Protestant missionaries as the Syrian Protestant College. The institution survived Ottoman suspicion, two world wars, and a civil war that left its campus — situated directly on the Green Line — caught between militia-held zones for fifteen years.
By 2016, the Lebanese pound had been pegged to the US dollar at 1,507.5 since 1997, a monetary arrangement that would catastrophically unravel within three years of this coin's issue.
