| Reverse description | The reverse displays a detailed view of the Roman Theatre at Bosra, a well-preserved 2nd-century AD amphitheatre located in south-western Syria, depicted in three-quarter perspective to convey its monumental semicircular seating tiers and stage architecture. The design is contained within a thirteen-sided (tridecagonal) border, echoing the form of the obverse. Arabic legends naming the republic and the denomination appear around the design within the bordered field. |
