Commenti	The Kingdom of Hejaz issued paper currency for a remarkably brief window. Ibn Saud's forces took Mecca in October 1924 and Medina in December 1925, effectively ending the Hashemite kingdom — meaning notes of this series had an active life measured in months rather than years. Sharif Hussein bin Ali had proclaimed himself King of the Arabs in 1916 and Caliph in 1924, neither claim gaining traction, and the currency program was part of that same overreach. Surviving examples of the 10 Pound denomination are genuinely rare. The political collapse meant no orderly redemption, and most notes either disappeared with the fleeing administration or were simply discarded.
