Commemorative coin of the British evacuation of Egypt, celebrating the withdrawal of the last UK troops from the Suez Canal on June 18, 1956. The design represents national liberation with symbols of resistance and Pharaonic pride. This issue marks a symbolic moment in the consolidation of Egyptian sovereignty after years of foreign occupation. It is a highly sought-after piece by collectors interested in coins of national independence and anti-colonial movements.
