| Beschrijving voorzijde | Bare-headed right-facing effigy of King Faisal I occupying the central field, rendered in high relief with fine portrait detail engraved by Percy Metcalfe. The king is depicted with a clean-shaven, youthful profile showing strong facial features characteristic of the royal portrait series. Arabic legend flanks the portrait on both sides within the scalloped border: the inscription to the right reads 'فيصل الأول' and to the left 'ملك العراق', identifying him as Faisal I, King of Iraq. The scalloped twelve-notch periphery frames the design distinctively, differentiating this denomination within the Iraqi coinage series. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Iraq's coinage system was established almost from scratch following the 1931 monetary law that created the Iraqi dinar, and these fils denominations were among the first issues struck for the newly sovereign kingdom. The Royal Mint in London handled production simply because Iraq had no minting infrastructure of its own — a dependency that persisted for decades.
Faisal I died in September 1933, making this a short series by necessity rather than design.
