| 表面の説明 | The national arms of the Yemen Arab Republic — an eagle with spread wings bearing a shield — appears as a vignette at the left, rendered in green intaglio. The central field carries the denomination in Arabic script within an elaborate guilloche panel, flanked by intricate geometric latticework borders typical of Bradbury Wilkinson engraving. Arabic inscriptions referencing the issuing authority and authorization appear below the denomination, with the serial number printed twice in green. |

To the left, a large blank oval panel serves as the watermark window. A circular guilloche rosette is positioned at the far right, with the English denomination "ONE RIAL" printed within it. The overall design is executed in green on a light ground. |

The Yemen Currency Board was established in 1964 as part of the newly independent Yemen Arab Republic's first steps toward a sovereign monetary system, replacing the British-administered East African shilling that had circulated in Aden and the protectorates. This note is from that inaugural series — Pick 1 is as foundational as the catalog gets for Yemeni paper money.
Bradbury Wilkinson printed the series from their New Malden facility, a firm that handled currency contracts for dozens of newly independent states during the 1960s decolonization wave. The short issue window before the Currency Board was superseded by the Central Bank of Yemen in 1971 kept total print runs modest.
