| Obverse description | The Jordanian royal coat of arms rendered in full polychrome color occupies the central field, depicting a crowned shield bearing an eagle displayed, flanked by two Hashemite flags and supported by wheat sheaves, with the Order of the Renaissance medallion suspended below on a ribbon. The arms are surmounted by a gold royal crown and enclosed within a raised inner circle. The Arabic legend البنك المركزى الأردنى curves along the upper periphery, while the Latin legend CENTRAL BANK OF JORDAN arcs along the lower periphery, both incuse-raised against the patinated bronze field. |

| Additional information |
Jordan's 5-dinar bronze pieces of this period were issued as commemorative or collector circulation strikes rather than general-use coinage — a denomination far too high for everyday transactions in a country where the 100-fils coin handled most street-level commerce. The Central Bank has historically used large-format bronze issues like this one to mark institutional anniversaries, though KM#92 specifically ties to Jordan's ongoing numismatic collector program rather than a singular dated event.
At 33 grams, these see essentially no pocket wear; most examples that surface were pulled from original packaging.
