Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features an image of the ancient Egyptian goddess Isis on one side, while the other side bears the inscription "FAO" which stands for "Food and Agriculture Organization" of the United Nations. This suggests that the coin was issued to commemorate Egypt's involvement with the FAO and its efforts to promote agriculture and food security.
