| Reverse description | The reverse presents scenes and landscapes evoking prehistoric Algeria, with the left side bearing a celebrated engraving of a gazelle — identified as a small antelope — rendered on a stone slab from the rock art station of Tin Taghirt within Tassili N'Ajjer National Park. The composition draws upon the rich corpus of Saharan rock engravings to illustrate Algeria's deep prehistoric heritage. |
