A new coin.
The 1988 Egypt 5 pounds silver coin commemorating the Seoul Summer Olympic Games is a dynamic issue celebrating international sport and global unity. Struck in silver and graded PR68 DCAM by PCGS, this Proof coin features strong cameo contrast, with reflective mirror fields and frosted design elements that highlight its intricate composition.
The reverse displays a symbolic Olympic-themed design combining athletic motion and ancient heritage. A series of stylized athletes in motion forms a circular composition around a central geometric structure resembling a stadium or global map grid. To the right stands a classical Egyptian statue figure, linking modern sport with ancient tradition. Arabic inscriptions encircle the design, reinforcing the commemorative nature, while a decorative border frames the scene.
The obverse features a bold and clean layout with inscriptions marking the event. The denomination “5 pounds” appears alongside the date “1988,” with Arabic inscriptions and the phrase “24th Summer Olympic Games” surrounding the central motif. The abbreviation “ARE” (Arab Republic of Egypt) is prominently placed, accompanied by ornamental elements and a patterned border.
Certified PR68 DCAM by PCGS, this coin is an excellent collectible for enthusiasts of Olympic history, sports themes, and Egyptian commemorative coinage.
