| Obverse description | At center, the national emblem of Saudi Arabia comprising two crossed swords beneath a palm tree, all rendered in relief. The Hijri and Gregorian dates flank the emblem on either side. A bold Arabic legend curves above the central device identifying the ruling monarch, with a further legend below denoting his full royal title and the name of the kingdom. The design is executed in a clean, modern relief style typical of mid-20th century Saudi coinage. |

| Reverse description | A Quranic verse in Arabic curves prominently across the upper field, referencing the FAO theme of food and sustenance. At center, a beaded inner circle encloses the denomination inscribed in Arabic calligraphy. To the left of the circle, the Western numeral '100' appears in large figures, while to the right, the Arabic numeral '١٠٠' is similarly displayed. Below the central circle, a two-line Arabic legend states the denomination in words: 'One Riyal / One Hundred Halalah.' The overall design emphasizes the FAO commemorative purpose through the Quranic food-related inscription. |
