| Reversbeschreibung | The reverse presents a finely engraved adaptation of Leonardo da Vinci's celebrated painting La Gioconda (the Mona Lisa), depicted as a three-quarter-length portrait of a seated woman with loosely draped hair, her hands folded in her lap, occupying the majority of the coin's field against a plain mirror-polished background. Small olive sprigs flank the lower portion of the figure at left and right within the beaded border. The bilingual inscription LA GIOCONDA in Latin letters arcs along the lower left rim, separated by a dash from the Arabic الچُكوندَا along the lower right, identifying the subject. |

Sharjah's 1970 gold issues were part of a calculated bid by Ruler Sheikh Khalid III to generate hard currency through numismatic sales in the months before the federation of the UAE formalized in 1971. The emirate had no meaningful oil revenue of its own and leaned heavily on these collector-targeted series — which featured world art masterpieces including the Louvre's Mona Lisa — to fund government operations. It was nakedly commercial, and contemporary numismatists knew it.
Struck under contract, not at a local facility. The .900 fineness matches French coin standards, pointing to likely European production.
