25 Fils - Isa / Hamad

Bahrain's 25 fils denomination has been struck continuously since the early years of independence, with the dies updated to reflect successive rulers rather than any reform of the monetary system itself. The transition on this type from Isa bin Salman Al Khalifa — who ruled from independence in 1971 until his death in 1999 — to his son Hamad occurred mid-series, making the final years of the date range among the lowest-mintage strikes.
