| Aanvullende informatie |
Kuwait's first independent coinage, issued in 1961 immediately following the termination of the British protectorate agreement on June 19th of that year. The currency had previously been the Indian rupee, then the Gulf rupee — a reserve currency administered by the Reserve Bank of India specifically for the Gulf states. When India devalued the Gulf rupee in 1959, Kuwait accelerated its push for a sovereign monetary system, resulting in the Kuwaiti dinar and this fils coinage appearing within two years of that devaluation.
