| Reverse description | At centre, a stylised globe rendered with a grid of meridians and parallels is encircled by a laurel wreath, with the date 1981 incused across the equatorial band. Extensive Arabic legends fill the upper field in multiple lines, identifying the Libyan Arab Jamahiriya and the international commemorative occasion. A ribbon-shaped cartouche in the lower field bears an additional Arabic inscription. The overall composition reflects the official emblematic style associated with Libyan commemorative coinage of the Gaddafi era. |
