1/4 Dinar

Kuwait's first post-independence currency law, passed in 1960, established the Kuwaiti Dinar at a rate deliberately pegged above sterling — a pointed statement from a state that had only just shed its British protectorate status. The quarter dinar was the smallest denomination in the series and saw heavy everyday use, which means genuinely uncirculated examples from the early part of the issue window are harder to locate than the higher values.

Bradbury Wilkinson printed the full series from their New Malden works, a facility better known for high-security engraved work across Commonwealth and Gulf issues throughout the postwar decades.
