| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse displays a dramatic, large-scale frontal depiction of a roaring lion's head, rendered in fine detail with an elaborate full mane radiating outward to fill much of the field. The lion's jaws are open wide, baring fangs in a powerful roar, with detailed musculature and fur texture rendered in high relief against a mirror-polished proof field. The design occupies nearly the entire reverse surface and is enclosed within a beaded inner border, the field otherwise uninscribed. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Issued by the Yemen Arab Republic in the immediate aftermath of the 1962 revolution that toppled the Mutawakkilite Kingdom, this gold commemorative honors Muhammad Mahmoud al-Zubayri, the poet and nationalist who became one of the revolution's intellectual architects — and who was assassinated in 1965 under circumstances that remain disputed. The YAR government used commemorative coinage in these early years partly as a legitimacy exercise, issuing gold pieces aimed squarely at foreign collectors and proof sets rather than domestic circulation.
At 42.29g in .900 gold, this was never a practical circulating denomination. The KM#4a designation distinguishes it from the silver counterpart struck to the same design.
