| Reverse description | A richly detailed panoramic scene commemorating the Suez Canal, divided into three visual planes. In the upper register, a stylized desert landscape features the Giza pyramids in the background, accompanied by the denomination numeral 5 and Arabic denomination legend to the right. The central register depicts a cargo vessel navigating the canal waters, with seabirds in flight across the open field. In the foreground, two laden camels with a handler traverse a desert shore framed by tall palm trees and reeds to the left. The Arabic legend قناة السويس arcs along the upper border and the Latin legend THE SUEZ CANAL appears in the lower exergue, all within a beaded border. |
