This remarkable copper-nickel 2 Rupees coin from Sri Lanka commemorates the 50th Anniversary of the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) in 1995. Minted during a significant milestone year for this United Nations agency, this piece represents Sri Lanka’s participation in celebrating global agricultural achievement and food security initiatives.

The coin features the distinctive FAO logo prominently displayed on the obverse within a circular design, accompanied by commemorative dates. The reverse showcases the denomination with inscriptions and legends encircling the border, creating an elegant numismatic design.

In Very Fine condition, this scarce commemorative issue demonstrates well-preserved details despite its circulated status, making it an authentic piece of Sri Lankan numismatic history. The copper-nickel composition ensures durability and the characteristic appearance collectors seek in mid-1990s Asian commemoratives.

This coin appeals to numismatists interested in FAO commemorative issues, Sri Lankan currency history, and 20th-century Asian coinage. Its scarcity, combined with its historical significance tied to international agricultural cooperation, makes it a worthwhile addition to specialized collections focused on thematic or national coinage.
