Reverse description The reverse features a bold stylized numeral '15' rendered in Arabic calligraphic form, with the upright stroke of the '1' depicted as a tall minaret and the '5' curving into an abstracted representation of the Kaaba at Mecca, set against a plain polished field. To the right, an Arabic inscription reads 'إن هذه أمتكم أمة واحدة' (Verily this Brotherhood of yours is a single Brotherhood), arranged in ornate script. Along the lower left arc, the bilingual legend 'القرن ١٥هـ / 15th C.H.' identifies the commemorative theme as the dawn of the 15th century of the Islamic Hijra calendar. The design is executed with strong graphic clarity, contrasting frosted devices against a mirror-like gold field. The entire composition commemorates the commencement of the 15th Hijri century.
