| Reverse description | The reverse features a polychrome colored depiction of the ancient Egyptian falcon-headed deity Horus standing in frontal view, rendered in traditional Egyptian artistic style with vivid orange, gold, and white robes, holding a sceptre in his right hand and an ankh in his left. Two sacred peregrine falcons, each colored in blue and green, flank the central figure symmetrically. The central device is surrounded by an ornamental ring decorated with alternating colored rectangular segments in purple, green, and gold, evoking ancient Egyptian decorative motifs. At the base of this decorative ring, a gilded winged scarab beetle is prominently displayed. The legend 'HORUS · GOD OF THE SKY' arcs along the upper border and 'ANCIENT EGYPT' along the lower border, both rendered in gilded lettering, with the entire design enclosed within a beaded inner border. |
