Bahrain's Currency Board was established in 1964 specifically to replace the Gulf rupee, which had circulated across the Persian Gulf states and was becoming untenable following India's restrictions on rupee exports. This note was part of the inaugural issue — the first currency Bahrain had ever issued under its own authority, denominated in a dinar system devised for the new board rather than inherited from any colonial arrangement.
De La Rue printed the entire inaugural series, as was routine for newly independent Gulf states with no domestic printing infrastructure. The quarter-dinar denomination was practical for everyday retail use in a market still calibrating to unfamiliar paper denominations.
