| Additional information |
The National Bank of Egypt, founded in 1898 under a British concession, functioned as Egypt's de facto central bank for over half a century before the Central Bank of Egypt was established in 1961 and absorbed its governmental functions. Commemorative issues bearing the NBE name invoke that earlier institutional identity deliberately — a distinction that matters for attribution.
The .720 silver fineness places this squarely in the mid-grade silver alloy range historically common to circulation-weight commemoratives across the Middle East and North Africa.
