| Beschrijving keerzijde | The Islamic Shahada, rendered in bold square Kufic calligraphy, occupies the central medallion within a beaded inner circle: the upper register bearing 'لا إله إلا الله' (There is no god but Allah) and the lower register 'محمد رسول الله' (Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah). Surrounding the central circle, a Quranic verse from Surah Al-Mu'minun (23:52) runs in a continuous Arabic legend: 'وإن هذه أمتكم أمة واحدة وأنا ربكم فاتقون' (And indeed this, your religion, is one religion, and I am your Lord, so fear Me). The entire design is framed by a beaded outer border, with the inscription arranged in the outer annulus. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Issued to mark the UAE's National Day, the 8-dinar denomination was chosen to reflect the union of the seven emirates — a numismatic gesture toward the federation's founding count, with the face value carrying symbolic rather than transactional weight. Fine gold one-troy-ounce bullion pieces from the Gulf states rarely circulate, and this series was produced in limited quantities directed almost entirely at the investment and collector market.
The .9999 fineness places it among the purer bullion issues of its era, matching the standard set by the Royal Canadian Mint's Maple Leaf program rather than the .9167 of the Krugerrand.
