| Obverse description | Central device depicts an armoured equestrian figure facing right, mounted on a prancing horse, rendered in relief against a plain field. The dual date legend, in both Western Arabic numerals (1979) and Eastern Arabic numerals (١٣٩٩), flanks the horseman at the upper left and upper right respectively. The Arabic legend naming the People's Socialist Libyan Arab Jamahiriya curves along the lower periphery of the scalloped flan, inscribed in stylised Arabic script. |
