| Beschrijving voorzijde | Conjoined busts of Sheikh Abdullah Al-Salem Al-Sabah and Sheikh Sabah Al-Salem Al-Sabah facing slightly right, both wearing traditional Arab headdress (keffiyeh and agal), occupying the central field. A circular legend in Arabic runs along the upper rim, reading the commemorative inscription for the 15th Anniversary of the National Day of the State of Kuwait, with the corresponding English legend continuing along the lower rim. The portrait rendering is in high relief, characteristic of the proof striking technique employed by the Royal Mint. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Kuwait's 15th National Day fell on June 19, 1976, marking fifteen years since the 1961 declaration of independence from British protection — an arrangement that had governed the emirate since 1899. Sabah III, who had ruled since 1965, oversaw a period of extraordinary oil revenue expansion following the 1973 embargo, and commemorative issues from this era reflect the state's deliberate investment in institutional prestige, including a nascent numismatic program through the Central Bank.
The proof version was struck in limited numbers for collectors, distinguished from the circulation strike by its polished dies and frosted devices.
