Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features an image of the Egyptian Museum in Cairo on one side, and an image of the ancient Egyptian pharaoh, King Tutankhamun, on the other side. This coin was issued to commemorate the 80th anniversary of the discovery of King Tut's tomb, which was discovered in 1922 by British archaeologist Howard Carter. The coin's design serves as a tribute to Egypt's rich history and cultural heritage.
