| Reverse description | The reverse presents a stylized geometric composition divided into quadrants by a central cross motif, each quadrant populated with schematic human figures in various poses symbolizing population and family. A rectangular tablet at the center bears the Arabic legend 'المجلس القومي للسكان' (National Population Council) in three lines. The surrounding field is filled with additional relief figures representing men, women, and children in active postures, conveying themes of demographic growth and family planning. The design is bold and modern in execution, consistent with Egyptian commemorative coinage of the period. A reeded rim with inner beaded border frames the composition. |
