Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique design that showcases the New Administrative Capital of Egypt, which is a new, under-construction city that is intended to replace Cairo as the capital of Egypt. The coin's design includes an image of the city's skyline, as well as the Egyptian flag and the year 1440 (2019) in Arabic numerals. This coin is a commemorative issue, meant to celebrate the construction of the New Administrative Capital, and it is not a regularly circulating coin.
