Jordan's Central Bank has issued multiple redesigned series over the decades, each tied closely to political decisions about national imagery and the projection of Hashemite authority. The 2022 issue continues a long-running practice of updating the series at irregular intervals rather than on any fixed schedule, typically prompted by security upgrade cycles rather than monetary policy changes.
The 1 Dinar sits at the bottom of the circulating denomination range and absorbs heavy transactional use — paper composition at this face value means wear rates are considerably higher than the higher denominations, several of which shifted to polymer in comparable regional series.
