| Obverse description | Central field features the denomination واحد جنيه (One Pound) inscribed within a circular cartouche in elegant Arabic calligraphy, surmounted by a stylised tughra-style ornamental device. Below the cartouche, the dual dates 1409 - 1989 (Hijri and Gregorian) are inscribed. A bold Arabic legend reading جمهورية مصر العربية (Arab Republic of Egypt) curves prominently across the lower field in highly stylised naskh script. The entire design is framed by a decorative milled border of alternating raised rectangular segments. |
