| Aversbeschreibung | Central field features the denomination inscription in large, ornate Arabic calligraphy reading 'واحد جنيه' (One Pound) within a decorated cartouche. The country name 'جمهورية مصر العربية' (Arab Republic of Egypt) is inscribed along the upper periphery in Arabic script. The Hijri date ١٤٢٠هـ and Gregorian date ١٩٩٩م appear in the lower field flanking the central motif. The design is framed by a decorative border of fine arabesques and a beaded inner rim. The overall style reflects the formal heraldic tradition of Egyptian commemorative coinage. |

Egypt commemorated the completion of the Cairo Metro's second line with this issue — specifically the tunnel segment running beneath the Nile between Shubra el-Kheima and Giza, an engineering undertaking that required boring through unstable alluvial sediment deposited over millennia. The project was executed with French technical assistance and opened in stages through the late 1990s, making Cairo one of only a handful of African cities with a functioning metro system at the time.
The .875 fineness is standard for Egyptian commemorative gold of this period, following the historic carat conventions used by the Cairo assay system rather than the .900 fine gold common to European issues.
