| Comments |
Jordan's 2022 dinar series was produced by the Canadian Bank Note Company — a somewhat underappreciated choice given that CBN has printed Jordanian currency for several decades, making the Ottawa relationship one of the more durable sovereign printing contracts in the region. The Hashemite Kingdom has maintained that arrangement through multiple redesign cycles, including the significant 2002 overhaul that introduced polymer elements elsewhere in the series before reverting certain denominations to cotton paper.
Pick 39 continues that cotton substrate tradition for the 1 dinar. Color-shifting ink on a circulating dinar of this denomination reflects a security specification that once sat only on higher values in the series.
