| Reverse description | Plain field featuring the Arabic inscription لبنان arched across the upper portion in bold raised script, with the Eastern Arabic numeral ١ (one) prominently centred in the field, flanked by decorative dots, and the word غرش (ghirsh/piastre) inscribed along the lower portion. The design is deliberately simple and unadorned, consistent with the emergency wartime coinage series struck for Lebanon during the Second World War. |
