Egypt struck this coin to commemorate Nasser's nationalization of the Suez Canal Company on July 26, 1956 — a move that triggered the subsequent invasion by British, French, and Israeli forces in October. The nationalization was framed domestically as reclaiming the canal's revenues to fund the Aswan High Dam after the United States and Britain withdrew their financing offer. This piece is one of the earliest Egyptian commemoratives issued by the Republic following the 1952 revolution, and its production predates the military crisis by only months.
