Additional information

Egypt's commemorative gold program of the early 1990s was tied to international sporting promotion, and this issue marks wrestling's deep roots in Egyptian athletic culture — the country had won Olympic wrestling medals dating back to the Helsinki Games of 1952. Production figures for this type were modest, and much of the original mintage was absorbed by regional collectors rather than entering broader international markets.
