| Aanvullende informatie |
Egypt's Cairo International Fair had been running since 1926, but the late 1970s issues commemorating it coincided with Sadat's open-door economic policy — the *Infitah* — which was explicitly designed to attract foreign investment and trade. Striking commemorative coins tied to the Fair was part of a broader effort to signal economic liberalization to international partners.
KM#479 is one of several Egyptian commemorative 10 Qirsh types from this period sharing the same copper-nickel specification, minted at the Cairo Mint.
