| 裏面の説明 | The reverse features a detailed vignette of the Aswan High Dam construction site, depicting water rushing through the diversion works with construction cranes and engineering infrastructure in the middle ground, set against a rising sun whose rays radiate from the horizon across the upper field. The commemorative date '١٥ مايو ١٩٦٤' (15 May 1964) is inscribed in the upper legend, while the lower legend reads 'تذكار تحويل مجرى نهر النيل' (Commemoration of the Diversion of the Nile River) in Arabic kufic script. A dentilated inner border frames the entire composition. |

Issued to commemorate the UNESCO-led campaign to relocate the Abu Simbel temples before the rising waters of Lake Nasser submerged them permanently, this coin marks one of the most ambitious archaeological salvage operations ever undertaken. The Aswan High Dam, whose construction necessitated the flooding, was itself a Cold War-era project financed and engineered with Soviet assistance after the United States withdrew funding following Nasser's nationalization of the Suez Canal in 1956.
The temple dismantling began in 1964 — the same year this piece was struck — with over 50 nations contributing to the $80 million effort.
