| Additional information |
Banque du Liban has issued gold bullion pieces periodically since the 1990s, largely as a vehicle for domestic and diaspora investment rather than collector circulation. Lebanon's gold reserves — among the largest per capita in the Arab world — give these issues a degree of institutional credibility unusual for a country that spent much of the late twentieth century in monetary freefall.
The .9999 fineness places this piece at four-nines purity, a standard Lebanon adopted in line with international bullion benchmarks to ensure compatibility with global spot markets.
