| Obverse lettering | صاحب السمُو الشيخ زايد بن سلطان آل نهيان 1996 ١٩٩٦ الذكرى الثلاثون لعيد الجلوس (Translation: His Highness Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan 1996 The 30th Anniversary of the Accession Day) |
| Reverse description | Ornate central medallion of interlacing calligraphic Arabic script arranged in a floral rosette pattern, radiating outward from a central inscription device and surrounded by further layers of Arabic calligraphy. The design is executed in deeply engraved relief, giving the overall composition a rich, decorative character consistent with Islamic artistic tradition. An encircling legend in the upper field reads 'Years of welfare and giving / Accession Day of His Highness Sheikh Zayed,' while the lower arc bears the legend 'President of the United Arab Emirates.' The highly polished field enhances the contrast between the raised calligraphic elements and the mirror-like background. |
