Obverse description Central device depicts a traditional Arabian dhow with a tall mast set against a palm tree, rendered in fine relief within an open field. The composition evokes Bahrain's maritime heritage and agricultural landscape. The upper legend, arranged along the inner border, reads in Arabic script 'حكومة البحرين' (Government of Bahrain), flanked by the dual dating '1969-1389' in both Gregorian and Hijri numerals. The lower legend 'GOVERNMENT OF BAHRAIN' arcs along the rim in Latin capitals. The overall design is clean and heraldic in character, with no additional ornamentation in the field.
