| Additional information |
Ismaily SC, founded in 1924 in the canal city of Ismailia, is one of Egypt's oldest football clubs and a two-time African Champions League winner. The centennial commemoration in 2024 prompted this issue — Egypt's central bank has a long habit of releasing .720 fine silver pieces honoring sporting institutions, and the Ismaily coin fits squarely into that ongoing commemorative program rather than marking any singular event beyond the hundred-year anniversary.
