The Central Bank explained that in doing so, the new currency linked the richness of ancient Egyptian history with the modern era, and combined the civilization of the ancestors with what the descendants have accomplished.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"rtl\">\n<\/p><p dir=\"rtl\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-278533 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/pub-8c6367eeb78947fb9a67f9647334fc7f.r2.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/291880338_1698735280498633_595466915849059301_n.jpg\" alt=\"291880338_1698735280498633_595466915849059301_n\" width=\"1152\" height=\"606\"><\/p>\n<p dir=\"rtl\">\n<\/p><p dir=\"rtl\">The design of the new banknote was prepared by De La Rue International (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.delarue.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">De La Rue plc<\/a>), is a British company based in Basingstoke, England that manufactures paper including banknotes, passports and tax stamps.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"rtl\">\n<\/p><p dir=\"rtl\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-278537 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/pub-8c6367eeb78947fb9a67f9647334fc7f.r2.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/dlr-logo-col.jpg\" alt=\"dlr-logo-col\" width=\"177\" height=\"209\"><\/p>\n<p dir=\"rtl\">The new banknote was printed at the Central Bank of Egypt&#039;s new printing facilities in the New Administrative Capital, using premium printing paper with SAFEGUARD\u00ae security technology supplied by De La Rue and CCL Secure. The paper is made from GUARDIAN\u2122 polymer. The Central Bank of Egypt announced the banknote&#039;s dimensions, which are set at 6.9 x 13.2 cm.<\/p>\n\n\n<div style=\"height:29px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-right\" id=\"2-%D8%AA%D9%81%D8%A7%D8%B5%D9%8A%D9%84-%D8%A7%D9%84%D9%88%D8%AC%D9%87%D8%A9-%D9%88%D8%B9%D9%84%D8%A7%D9%85%D8%A7%D8%AA-%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%A3%D9%85%D8%A7%D9%86\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"%D8%AA%D9%81%D8%A7%D8%B5%D9%8A%D9%84_%D8%A7%D9%84%D9%88%D8%AC%D9%87%D8%A9_%D9%88%D8%B9%D9%84%D8%A7%D9%85%D8%A7%D8%AA_%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%A3%D9%85%D8%A7%D9%86\"><\/span>Destination details and security signs<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n<p dir=\"rtl\">The front of the banknote features an image of the Al-Fattah Al-Aleem Mosque, a prominent example of Islamic architecture in the New Administrative Capital. The text on this side of the note is written in Arabic.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"rtl\">The highest quality standards were used in printing the banknote to ensure that it is not counterfeited. Printing ink was used that allows the printing details to appear prominently. Special ultraviolet inks were also used, which show Islamic decorations in yellow and green on the mosque\u2019s mihrab in the middle of the banknote. The number 10 appears above the mihrab, and on the other hand, the side numbering appears in orange when exposed to an ultraviolet lamp.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"rtl\">On the left of the paper, the printing conformity feature appears on the lotus leaf. When viewed through the light, the lotus flower shape is completed. A transparent plastic window was also placed, showing a holographic image of the Al-Fattah Al-Aleem Mosque, which appears in silver when exposed to normal light. This is one of the most important security features of polymer papers.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"rtl\">If we look at the bottom left of the paper, the number 10 appears in copper color, sparkling when the paper is tilted. Also, the number 10 below the holographic image of the Al-Fattah Al-Aleem Mosque appears in silver when exposed to normal light.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"rtl\">The value of the banknote was also added within the design elements and the number 10 in Arabic and English on the mosque&#039;s dome, and the banknote will bear the signature of the current Central Bank Governor, Tarek Amer.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_278535\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-278535\" style=\"width: 1124px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-278535 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/pub-8c6367eeb78947fb9a67f9647334fc7f.r2.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/5646486484885-Medium.jpg\" alt=\"Security features of the first Egyptian polymer banknote\" width=\"1124\" height=\"768\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-278535\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Security markings on the front of the paper<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-right\" id=\"3-%D8%AA%D9%81%D8%A7%D8%B5%D9%8A%D9%84-%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%B8%D9%87%D8%B1-%D9%88%D8%B9%D9%84%D8%A7%D9%85%D8%A7%D8%AA-%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%A3%D9%85%D8%A7%D9%86\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"%D8%AA%D9%81%D8%A7%D8%B5%D9%8A%D9%84_%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%B8%D9%87%D8%B1_%D9%88%D8%B9%D9%84%D8%A7%D9%85%D8%A7%D8%AA_%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%A3%D9%85%D8%A7%D9%86\"><\/span>Back details and safety markings<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n<p dir=\"rtl\">As we mentioned earlier, the back of the coin bears an image of a statue of the Egyptian Queen Hatshepsut, which reflects the identity of the ancient Egyptian state.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"rtl\">On the reverse side of the banknote, additional security features were added. The image of Queen Hatshepsut&#039;s statue and the Library of Alexandria were printed using a secure technology. Furthermore, the holographic images of the Al-Fattah Al-Aleem Mosque and the number 10 appear silver on the front of the note but gold on the back when exposed to normal light.
