Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1968 Lebanon 1 Līrah / Livre (FAO) circulating commemorative coin made of Nickel weighing 9.5 g is that it features the iconic cedar tree, which is the national symbol of Lebanon, on its obverse side. The cedar tree has been a symbol of Lebanon for thousands of years and is mentioned in many religious texts, including the Bible. The coin's design was created by the Lebanese artist, Michel el-Khoury, and it was issued to commemorate the 15th anniversary of Lebanon's independence from France in 1946.
