| Obverse description | Central field features a stylized rectangular frame resembling an architectural facade or doorway, rendered in geometric Kufic script style, enclosing the denomination '١ جنيه' (1 Pound) at the top. The Gregorian year '٢٠٢٠' appears to the left and the Hijri year '١٤٤٢' to the right of the central motif. The lower portion of the frame contains the Arabic legend 'جمهورية مصر العربية' (Arab Republic of Egypt) rendered in an interlocking geometric pattern. The entire design reflects a modern interpretation of traditional Islamic geometric art, with a beaded border encircling the coin. |

| Reverse description | Central motif depicts a seated ancient Egyptian statue, shown facing right and positioned on a rectangular base, evoking the iconic scribal or official statuary of pharaonic Egypt. To the right of the statue appears the logo of the Egyptian Society of Engineers — a stylized house or pyramid form with a hanging plumb bob — accompanied by the legend 'الهندسة فن الخلود' (Engineering is the art of immortality). The circular legend 'جمعية المهندسين المصرية' (Egyptian Society of Engineers) runs along the upper border, and the foundational inscription 'تأسست عام ١٩٢٠' (Founded in 1920) is placed in the lower field. A beaded border frames the entire reverse design. |
