| 正面铭文 | THE TREASURES OF TUTANKHAMUN SOMALI REPUBLIC 250 SHILLINGS 2008 |
| 背面描述 | The reverse presents a highly detailed polychrome enamel depiction of the famous Scarab Pectoral Necklace from the tomb of Tutankhamun. At centre, a large winged scarab beetle rendered in vivid blue and green enamel is shown with wings fully outstretched in the Egyptian artistic tradition, surmounted by a deep red solar disc. The scarab's body is realistically articulated with segmented elytra in blue enamel, and the lower portion terminates in a green enamel element symbolising the shen ring. The legend SCARAB PECTORAL NECKLACE is inscribed in three lines across the upper field in raised Latin capitals, while the surrounding field carries finely incused Egyptian decorative motifs echoing the original pectoral's iconographic context. |

Somalia's "Treasures of Tutankhamun" series was part of a wave of licensed commemorative issues produced for the international collector market in the mid-2000s, authorized through Somalia's nominal issuing authority during a period when the country had no functioning central government. The Central Bank of Somalia had effectively ceased operations years earlier; these coins were contracted through outside minting agencies targeting European and North American collectors, not Somali circulation.
The scarab pectoral from Tutankhamun's tomb — the physical artifact this coin references — was found in 1922 by Howard Carter's excavation team and is held at the Egyptian Museum in Cairo.
