| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central field presents a detailed three-quarter frontal view of a steam locomotive with prominent boiler, driving wheels, and coupling rods, emerging from the right, while a passenger train is shown receding along parallel tracks toward a tunnel portal at the left, with radiating lines suggesting light or speed in the background. The date 1988 appears in the lower left of the central field. The legend ALBANIA arcs across the upper border, and the denomination 50 LEKË is inscribed along the lower border, both separated by five-pointed stars at either side, all within a beaded inner border against a frosted dark rim. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Piedfort essais — struck at double the standard thickness on polished blanks — were almost never intended for circulation. This Albanian example, produced during the final years of Enver Hoxha's isolationist state, was almost certainly struck for presentation or diplomatic purposes; Albania in 1988 maintained fewer than a handful of formal foreign relationships and had been functionally sealed from the West since the 1961 Sino-Soviet split drove it from the Eastern Bloc's orbit entirely.
The railways themselves were a point of genuine national pride under the communist regime — construction began in the 1940s with entirely voluntary labor, a fact the government broadcast loudly.
