A new coin.
This Egypt 5 pounds silver commemorative coin issued in 1987 (AH 1408) celebrates the 25th anniversary of the Helwan Company, an important industrial enterprise contributing to Egypt’s manufacturing and economic development. The coin highlights the role of national industry in strengthening infrastructure and technological progress during the late 20th century.
The obverse features a bold industrial design centered on the company’s emblem, composed of interlocking stylized letters within a circular field. Surrounding the logo is a gear-shaped border, symbolizing engineering, machinery, and production. Arabic inscriptions run along the inner ring, referencing the Helwan Company and its anniversary. The combination of mechanical motifs and clean geometric layout emphasizes the industrial theme.
The reverse displays a symbolic composition with a vertical torch rising from a central base, representing progress and innovation. On either side appear circular medallions containing Arabic inscriptions, while below are additional lines of calligraphy indicating the commemorative nature of the coin. The dates “1987–1408” are included, and the entire design is framed by a patterned rim that enhances its structured appearance.
Graded MS63 by PCGS, this silver coin offers solid detail and historical significance. It is a compelling collectible for those interested in industrial heritage, economic history, and modern Egyptian commemorative coinage.
