| Reverse description | The central vignette presents an intaglio view of the Great Mosque of Samarra with its iconic conical spiral minaret (Malwiya) rising above the surrounding ruins and palm trees against an open sky. The denomination 1/2 DINAR appears in bold letterpress to the left of the central scene, with the bank name CENTRAL BANK OF IRAQ arching across the top in English. Ornate guilloche panels frame the composition on both sides, and the fraction 1/2 is repeated in the upper corners within the decorative border. |
