| Reverse description | The reverse features the emblem of the Cairo International Fair as its central device: a stylised globe and anchor motif set within a heraldic shield, itself enclosed within a partial cogwheel or gear-wheel border symbolising industry. Ornate arabesque scrollwork flanks the central emblem at the lower left and right, lending a decorative quality to the composition. Below the emblem, a rectangular cartouche contains the dual dates '١٣٩١ / ١٩٧١' in Arabic-Indic numerals, representing the Hijri and Gregorian years respectively. A fine beaded border frames the entire reverse design. |
