A new coin.
The 1993 Egypt 5 pounds silver coin commemorates the 125th anniversary of Talaat Harb, one of the most influential figures in Egypt’s modern economic history. Struck in silver and graded MS64 by PCGS, this coin honors the founder of Banque Misr and a pioneer of national industry and financial independence.
The obverse features a detailed portrait of Talaat Harb, shown wearing a traditional fez, with a composed and thoughtful expression. Fine engraving highlights his facial features, clothing folds, and the subtle texture of the background. Arabic inscriptions curve around the portrait, forming a complete frame that emphasizes the commemorative nature of the design. A beaded rim adds structure and elegance to the composition.
The reverse presents an inscription within a central circular field, including the denomination and dates “1993” and “1413.” Surrounding Arabic calligraphy fills the outer ring, creating a harmonious ornamental pattern. The layout is enclosed by a clean border, maintaining balance and clarity while preserving traditional design elements.
Talaat Harb (1867–1941) played a key role in establishing Egypt’s modern banking system and promoting national economic growth. This coin is a meaningful collectible for those interested in political history, finance, and influential personalities.
