| Aanvullende informatie |
College Hall at the American University of Beirut was completed in 1871, designed by John Ely Jr. in a Romanesque Revival style and built largely with funding secured by AUB founder Daniel Bliss during an American fundraising tour. It survived the 1956 explosion that killed AUB president Bayard Dodge's predecessor, the 1983–1984 campus disruptions during the civil war, and decades of Beirut's structural violence largely intact.
Banque du Liban's commemorative silver program has leaned heavily on architectural subjects since the 1990s, with College Hall appearing as one of the more defensible choices given the building's genuine historical weight in the region's educational history. The 10 Livres denomination is nominal — these pieces were never intended for circulation.
