| Reverse description | Central design depicts a helmeted Egyptian soldier in profile bust facing right, rendered in high relief, set against a large circular disc evoking a rising sun or military emblem. The soldier grasps a rifle, with stylized wavy lines below representing the Suez Canal crossing. To the lower right, a stepped pyramidal form alludes to the Bar-Lev Line breach. A sprig of laurel is placed at the lower left of the field. The commemorative Arabic legend الذكرى العشرون لنصر أكتوبر (The 20th Anniversary of October War Victory) curves along the lower portion of the field, all within a reeded border. |
