| Reverse description | The reverse presents a facing bust portrait of King Faisal bin Abdulaziz Al Saud of Saudi Arabia, depicted wearing the traditional Arab keffiyeh headdress with flowing folds rendered in fine relief. The effigy occupies the lower two-thirds of the field, with the king's beard and facial features sculpted in a naturalistic style. A curved Arabic commemorative legend arches around the upper portion of the field, reading from right to left. The design commemorates the memory of the late Saudi monarch, who was assassinated in 1975, and the coin serves as a memorial tribute issued by Egypt. |
