Beschrijving voorzijde Bare-headed effigy of King Hussein bin Talal facing right, rendered in high relief with precise sculptural detail engraved by Philip Nathan. The king's profile is unadorned and austere, filling the central field. A curved Arabic legend arcs along the right peripheral field, with a second Arabic inscription running along the left peripheral field, both separated from the denticulated border by the open field. The overall design presents a restrained yet dignified royal portrait characteristic of Hashemite coinage of this period.

Aanvullende informatie

Pattern coinage from Jordan's 1975 decimal currency trials rarely surfaces in trade, and this gold quarter-dirham piece represents a denomination structure that was ultimately shelved before public introduction. The Central Bank commissioned multiple pattern compositions that year as Jordan evaluated a proposed metrication of its coinage system — the fils denominations that emerged in circulation used far more economical alloys.

KM#Pn10 is one of several catalogued patterns from this trial series, struck in limited numbers purely for official evaluation rather than distribution.
