| Additional information |
Egypt's gold commemorative program of the late 1980s and early 1990s was driven largely by foreign-currency revenue targets rather than collector demand, and many issues from this period were sold directly through state agencies at premiums that left secondary-market pricing erratic for years. The .900 fineness places this outside the purer bullion standards Egypt would adopt later, making it a hybrid — too fine for jewelry, not fine enough to track spot cleanly.
