| Beschrijving voorzijde | The national coat of arms of the Republic of Cyprus occupies the central field, depicting a dove in flight carrying an olive branch above the date 1960, the year of independence, all within a circular border. The arms are flanked by laurel sprigs extending along the lower periphery. A circular legend surrounding the device reads 'CYPRUS · ΚΥΠΡΟΣ · KIBRIS' in Latin, Greek, and Turkish scripts respectively, representing the island's three official designations. The coin year 1988 appears within the legend. The overall composition is rendered in high relief consistent with proof striking. |

Cyprus issued this proof alongside a base-metal circulation strike as part of a broader Commonwealth and smaller-nation commemorative trend tied to the Seoul Games. The Central Bank's decision to produce a silver proof variant of a fifty-cent denomination was partly commercial — aimed squarely at the collector market rather than any circulation function — and mintages were kept deliberately low to sustain that appeal.
Seoul 1988 was the first Summer Olympics held without a significant boycott since Munich 1972, a detail that gave the Games unusual symbolic weight at the time.
