| Obverse description | The obverse features a large, stylized Arabic calligraphic design occupying the central field, rendering the word 'Lubnan' (Lebanon) in an artistic, flowing script arranged within a triangular composition. The peripheral legend reads 'REPUBLIQUE LIBANAISE' in Latin script and 'الجمهورية اللبنانية' in Arabic, flanking the date '1980' and the denomination '1 L.L.' with its Arabic equivalent '١ ل.ل.' The design is bold and modern, with deeply incised lines giving the calligraphic motif a sculptural quality against the smooth field. |
