| Aanvullende informatie |
This piece commemorates Gamal Abdel Nasser, who died of a heart attack on September 28, 1970 — the same year this coin was struck. Egypt had just brokered a ceasefire between the PLO and Jordan during Black September, and Nasser collapsed and died hours after seeing the last Arab leaders off at Cairo airport. The commemorative was issued posthumously, part of a broader Egyptian state effort to canonize his image almost immediately after his death.
The .720 fine silver alloy was standard for Egyptian commemoratives of this period, matching the composition used across several Nasser-era issues.
