| Reverse description | The reverse displays a central emblematic composition featuring an ancient Egyptian obelisk decorated with hieroglyphic motifs, flanked symmetrically by two Horus falcons in profile, all set within a large crescent device. The numeral 75 appears prominently to the upper right of the central group, accompanied by the word years in Latin script below it. A circular legend in Arabic reads اليوبيل الماسي (Diamond Jubilee) at the top, with the foundation years ١٩٤٧ and ٢٠٢٢ flanking the crescent, and the institution name كلية الطب جامعة عين شمس (Faculty of Medicine, Ain Shams University) inscribed along the lower border. The design commemorates the 75th anniversary of the founding of the Faculty of Medicine at Ain Shams University. |

| Additional information |
Ain Shams University's Faculty of Medicine was established in 1948, making it one of Egypt's oldest medical schools and the second faculty founded within the university after its inaugural year. The diamond jubilee commemorated here marks 75 years of operation — a milestone in Egyptian medical education that occurred against the backdrop of post-pandemic institutional reassessment across the region's university systems.
The dual KM reference numbers suggest this type was issued in both a standard and a proof or special finish variant, a common CBE practice for commemorative silver issues of this period.
