Saudi Arabia Gold One Guinea (Random) AU/BU
Struck at the Saudi Royal Mint located in the holy city of Mecca, this gold coin represents a fascinating chapter in mid twentieth century coinage. Issued during the years 1950 and 1957, each piece is composed of 0.2354 troy ounces of gold with a purity of 0.9167. Its design elements reflect the rich cultural and artistic traditions of the region, utilizing intricate Arabic script rather than portraiture. The obverse of the coin displays an elegant calligraphic design enclosed by a delicate beaded border. Below this central inscription, the imagery features crossed swords positioned beneath palm trees, a classic motif of Saudi Arabia. The reverse mirrors this aesthetic with its own central inscription framed by a beaded circle, accompanied by a legend above and the year of minting positioned below.
