Reverse description The reverse depicts an ancient Egyptian-style archery scene rendered in a flat, bas-relief manner reminiscent of pharaonic wall art. A kneeling archer in the foreground draws a large recurve bow, while a standing archer at centre aims a drawn bow assisted by a second standing figure to the right; a target stand with arrows appears to the left. An Arabic inscription at lower right reads 'الألعاب الأولمبية ٢٥' (The 25th Olympic Games), and an additional Arabic legend appears vertically along the left field. The scene is framed by the same decorative segmented inner border as the obverse.
