Beschrijving keerzijde Central field features a circular cartouche inscribed with 'ربع ريال' (Quarter Riyal) in Arabic. Flanking the cartouche are the numeral '25' in Western Arabic numerals to the left and '٢٥' in Eastern Arabic numerals to the right. An upper legend in Arabic reads 'خمس وعشرون هللة' (Twenty-Five Halalas), while the lower field bears the dual date '١٣٩٢هـ - ١٩٧٣م' (AH 1392 / AD 1973) above the FAO commemorative inscription 'وأطعموا البائس الفقير' (And feed the destitute and the poor), a Quranic verse chosen for the FAO issue. All legends are rendered in calligraphic Arabic script within a plain raised rim.

Aanvullende informatie

Issued as part of the global FAO coin program, which ran through the 1970s and recruited dozens of minting authorities to produce special circulation pieces promoting agricultural development and food security. Saudi Arabia's participation reflected its engagement with the UN's campaign following the 1972 Soviet grain crisis, which had sent food prices spiraling worldwide and lent the FAO program unusual urgency that year.

Struck at a time when Saudi oil revenues were transforming the kingdom's monetary infrastructure at speed, this issue sits in an odd position — a foreign-policy gesture minted domestically while the country was still building the institutions that would eventually replace SAMA itself.
