| Reverse description | The reverse features a detailed high-relief rendering of the ancient Lighthouse of Alexandria (Pharos), depicted as a multi-tiered square tower surmounted by a circular lantern and a statue of a figure with raised arm at its apex. The lower half of the design is enhanced with vivid colour application, portraying turbulent blue-green Mediterranean waves crashing against the rocky island base of the lighthouse. A small series logo appears in the lower left field. The legend THE LIGHTHOUSE OF ALEXANDRIA curves along the upper rim, with the date 2009 positioned to the lower right. |
