| Additional information |
The UAE's 2015 dirham series marked the first coinage to carry the portrait of Sheikh Khalifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan in a revised format following his 2014 stroke, a health event that significantly shifted day-to-day governance toward Crown Prince Mohammed bin Zayed. The Central Bank issued the updated series as a quiet reaffirmation of continuity during an uncertain period of de facto power transition.
