Additional information

North Yemen's coinage in the early 1960s was produced under the Mutawakkilite Kingdom in its final years — the September 1962 revolution that toppled Imam Muhammad al-Badr came just months before this issue's date, meaning coins bearing this year likely straddle the old regime and the chaotic early period of the Yemen Arab Republic, when monetary continuity was maintained largely out of practical necessity rather than political endorsement.
