| Reverse description | Central field depicts an ancient Egyptian trading scene rendered in a relief style inspired by pharaonic art. At the top, an Egyptian sailing vessel with a large billowing sail is shown on stylised waves. Below the vessel, a central winged or folded cloth-bale motif with a circular weight or seal is flanked on either side by kneeling figures engaged in trade or offering, each pair accompanied by hieroglyphic cartouches. The lower portion of the field bears the commemorative Arabic legend in a single curved line above the coin's border. |
