Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the Egyptian Society of Engineers, which was established in 1946. The coin's design reflects the society's mission to promote engineering and technological advancements in Egypt, with an image of a modern cityscape on one side and the society's emblem on the other. The use of silver and the relatively low weight of 17.5 grams also make it a unique and collectible item for numismatists.
