| Reverse description | The central field depicts a detailed view of the Euphrates Dam (Tabqa Dam) with its stepped spillway, turbine structures, and surrounding landscape, symbolizing Syria's major hydroelectric infrastructure project. To the left, a stylized olive or wheat branch extends along the rim. The Arabic legend arching across the upper field identifies the issuing authority and denomination, while inscriptions in the lower field name the dam and reference the FAO campaign for increased world food production. A segmented decorative border frames the entire design. |
