| Beschrijving voorzijde | The Sharjah coat of arms occupies the central field, depicting two crossed flags surmounted by a palm tree, the entire device encircled by a wreath of laurel branches. The bilingual legend surrounding the design identifies the issuing state in both Arabic and Latin script, with the date rendered in both the Gregorian and Hijri calendars. The denomination is inscribed at the lower portion of the legend on both obverse and peripheral areas. The gold fineness mark appears within the field. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Sharjah's 1970 gold series was issued just months before the emirate joined the United Arab Emirates federation in December 1971, making these among the last independent issues from the Qawasim-ruled territory under Khalid III. The series piggybacked on the international commemorative coin market then booming across smaller states — Franklin Mint-style production runs aimed squarely at collectors rather than circulation, a common revenue strategy among Gulf sheikhdoms navigating the transition away from the rupee zone after 1966.
The Napoleon connection places this within a broader thematic issue pairing Sharjah's name with figures of European history — an arrangement that had no local historical basis but sold well in Western numismatic markets.
