Additional information

Issued as part of the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization coin program, which ran from the late 1960s through the 1980s and encouraged member nations to mint coins carrying agricultural themes as a form of development messaging. Algeria's participation was modest — only a handful of FAO-designated issues were struck — and the 1980 date places this piece near the end of the program's most active period globally.
