Reverse description The central design features an ancient Egyptian-style seated figure, evoking the goddess Isis, nursing an infant, rendered in a stylized pharaonic artistic manner with a characteristic headdress. To the right of the central figure, symbolic motifs associated with nutrition and agriculture are depicted, including a fish, a bird, a jug, and cereal ears, alongside the official IYC (International Year of the Child) emblem and the vertically arranged acronym IYC in the field. The inscription FAO appears on the throne base of the seated figure. An Arabic legend reading التغذية والصحة (Alimentation and Health) arcs along the left border. The design is framed by a beaded inner border.
