| Additional information |
Cyprus struck its first post-independence decimal coinage in 1963, but the 1983 issues belong to a period of acute political fragmentation — the island had been effectively partitioned since the Turkish military intervention of 1974, and the Central Bank continued issuing coinage for the government-controlled south alone. The KM#54.1 designation distinguishes this from the later .2 variety, which introduced a modified value numeral.
