| Reverse description | The reverse bears a highly detailed right-facing portrait bust of King Faisal bin Abdulaziz Al Saud, depicted wearing the traditional Saudi Arabian keffiyeh and agal, rendered with fine sculptural detail in high relief. The portrait dominates the centre and lower portion of the field, conveying a dignified and statesmanlike likeness of the late Saudi monarch. The Arabic commemorative legend 'تخليد ذكرى جلالة الملك فيصل بن عبد العزيز' (Commemoration of His Majesty King Faisal bin Abdulaziz) is inscribed in an arc along the upper periphery, enclosed within a beaded inner border. A small engraver's or mint mark signature appears in Arabic script at the lower left of the field near the truncation of the bust. |
