| Obverse description | Bare-headed right-facing bust effigy of King Hussein bin Talal, rendered in high relief with fine detail on hair and facial features. The king is depicted in civilian dress with a suit and tie. An Arabic legend identifying the monarch appears in two sections flanking the portrait: his name to the right of the bust and his full royal title to the left in a flowing calligraphic script. The polished proof field provides a stark, mirror-like contrast to the frosted relief of the portrait. |
