| Reverse description | The reverse bears an entirely typographic design with no figurative imagery. The central field carries a multi-line inscription in raised letters commemorating the opening of the Suez Canal on 17 November 1869, beneath which a short horizontal rule serves as a decorative stop. The circular legend naming the Compagnie Universelle du Canal Maritime de Suez runs along the border. |
