| Reverse description | The numeral 5 is prominently displayed in large format at the upper centre of the field, flanked by the French legend PIASTRES to the left and SYRIENNES to the right, arching along the upper border. The Arabic value ٥ غروش (5 Girush) is rendered in large, flowing Arabic script occupying the lower half of the field. Two six-pointed stars flank the numeral 5 in the mid-field, with small lozenge ornaments providing additional decorative separation between the bilingual inscriptions. The scalloped rim frames the entire design. |
