| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field bears the tughra or calligraphic seal of Sheikh Abdullah II Al-Sabah, rendered in Arabic script. The design appears to incorporate the ruler's name 'Abdullah' in stylised calligraphic form, consistent with the tughra tradition of Islamic coinage. The execution is characteristic of hand-struck provincial coinage of the late nineteenth century, with an irregular flan typical of hammered production. The overall composition differs visually from that of KM#1, suggesting a distinct die variety. |

This attribution requires caution. Kuwait in 1886 was a semi-autonomous sheikhdom under Ottoman suzerainty, not yet the British protectorate it would become in 1899 — and no established authority in the region was striking indigenous copper coinage at that date. KM#A2 is a catalogued reference, but pieces attributed here have been questioned by specialists, with some suggesting these were struck as pattern or presentation issues rather than circulating currency. The Abdullah II in question is Sheikh Abdullah II Al-Sabah, who ruled from 1866 to 1892.
