| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse presents a detailed three-dimensional depiction of a crab, the symbol of the Cancer zodiac sign, rendered in high relief against a deep blue enamelled field. The crab is shown frontally with its claws raised, set amid swirling arabesque and cloud-like decorative motifs in silver against the blue ground. The Cancer astrological glyph appears in the upper left portion of the field. An Arabic calligraphic inscription occupies the left side of the design in an elegant cursive style. The entire central motif is enclosed within a finely beaded and scrollwork border. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Issued as part of Banque du Liban's ongoing zodiac series, which has produced collector pieces across multiple years with each sign struck in .500 silver at a relatively modest fineness for a commemorative issue. Lebanon has used these small-run collector coins partly to generate foreign exchange revenue — a quiet but consistent practice among central banks managing chronic fiscal pressure.
KM#50 places this among the mid-series strikes. The .500 fineness is lower than most European commemorative silver of the period, a cost-driven choice that keeps face value credible against metal content.
