The October Victory coin commemorates the 40th anniversary of Egypt's victory in the October War, also known as the Yom Kippur War, which was fought between Egypt and Israel in 1973. The coin's design features the Egyptian flag and the dates of the war, along with the 50 Qirsh denomination. It's interesting to note that the coin's brass plating gives it a distinctive golden color, which adds to its collectibility and numismatic value.
