Aanvullende informatie

The Hejaz coinage of 1916 was issued by Sharif Husayn ibn Ali immediately following his launch of the Arab Revolt against Ottoman rule in June of that year — these coins were among the first acts of a nascent state asserting administrative independence. Britain, backing the revolt through the Arab Bureau in Cairo, had every interest in seeing a functioning Hejazi monetary identity established quickly.

Nickel was an unusual choice for a region with no domestic minting infrastructure; production almost certainly relied on foreign technical assistance.
