Reverse description The reverse carries a two-line Arabic inscription within the field, recording the mint name and the Hijri date of issue. The legend reads 'Struck in Kuwait 1304', with the date placed at the bottom of the coin, distinguishing this variety from KM#1 where the date occupies a different position. The script is angular and consistent with the hand-engraved dies typical of Gulf hammered coinage of the period. The flan is irregular in shape, as is characteristic of this series.
