Kuwait's Currency Board was established immediately following independence in June 1961, replacing the Indian rupee that had served as the territory's circulating currency under British protection. This first series — the only series the Currency Board ever issued before being superseded by the Central Bank of Kuwait in 1969 — was printed by Bradbury Wilkinson at their New Malden facility, a firm with a long track record of colonial and post-colonial currency work across Africa and the Middle East.
The quarter-dinar denomination is the smallest in the inaugural set. Bradbury Wilkinson's intaglio work on this series is considered among their cleaner outputs of the period.
