This Egypt 5 pounds silver commemorative coin issued in 1985 (AH 1405) celebrates the 25th anniversary of Cairo International Stadium, one of the largest and most iconic sports venues in Egypt. Opened in 1960, the stadium has hosted numerous national and international events, symbolizing Egypt’s development in sports and public infrastructure.
The obverse features a detailed architectural view of Cairo International Stadium, shown from an elevated perspective. The circular structure of the arena is clearly defined, with tiered seating and structural supports carefully engraved. Above the stadium appears the date “1960,” while below is “1985,” marking the 25-year anniversary. Arabic inscriptions curve along the upper edge, and the English inscription “INTERNATIONAL CAIRO STADIUM” runs along the lower rim. The design is framed by a decorative border with geometric elements.
The reverse presents a central torch with a flame rising upward, symbolizing athletic spirit and competition. Beneath it are the Olympic rings, emphasizing international sports unity. Flanking the torch are two circular medallions with Arabic inscriptions, while additional text includes the anniversary dates “1960–1985” and AH 1405. The composition is balanced and enclosed within a patterned rim.
Graded MS64 by PCGS, this silver coin combines historical significance with strong visual appeal, making it an excellent collectible for sports and Olympic-themed numismatics.
