Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted to commemorate the 30th anniversary of the October War, also known as the Yom Kippur War, which was a significant military conflict between Egypt and Israel in 1973. The coin's design reflects this history, featuring an image of a soldier and a tank on one side, and the Egyptian coat of arms on the other. The use of silver and the relatively low weight of 17.5 grams also make this coin a unique and collectible item.
