| Obverse description | Central field features three stylized standing human figures rendered in a schematic, modernist style, the two flanking figures appearing taller than the central one, each depicted holding wheat stalks that extend outward to either side. The design evokes themes of agricultural productivity and communal welfare in keeping with the FAO issue. A circular legend in Latin script runs along the upper and lower periphery of the coin, interrupted by the central motif. |
