| Additional information |
Darfur's coinage issues of 2008 emerged from one of the most brutal humanitarian crises of the 21st century, a conflict that had already displaced over two million people by the time these pieces were struck. Whether these coins saw any genuine circulation within the region is doubtful — the practical infrastructure for a functioning local currency was largely absent amid ongoing violence.
The X# prefix in the reference places this squarely among unlisted or fantasy issues not recognized by the central Sudanese government in Khartoum.
