| Reverse description | Printed in deep blue, the reverse bears a large central intaglio vignette of the Philae temple complex — including Trajan's Kiosk and the Temple of Isis — as viewed from the Nile, with their reflections rendered in fine line engraving. A circular guilloche panel occupies the right side, and denomination numerals appear at the corners within intricate floral and lotus-motif guilloche borders. The denomination legend is set in a decorative band along the lower margin. |
