| Reverse description | Central motif features the stylized FAO emblem — a sheaf of wheat incorporating the letters 'F', 'A', and 'O' in bold relief — set prominently in the field. Beneath the emblem, the Latin motto 'FIAT PANIS' (Let There Be Bread) is inscribed in two lines. The denomination '250 FILS' in Latin script and '٢٥٠ فلس' in Arabic numerals and script appear in the lower field to the left and right respectively. Along the upper periphery, an Arabic legend 'لنعمل على توفير الغذاء للجميع' (Let us work to provide food for all) arcs around the inner border. The design is boldly struck with strong relief, consistent with the commemorative FAO coin series. |
