Reverse description The reverse presents a bold commemorative design centered on the large numeral '50' surmounted by the cursive English legend 'In Celebration of the 50th Anniversary of Kuwait's Currency Issuance,' arranged in flowing script across the upper and lower fields. Two oval vignettes flank the central numeral: the left vignette reproduces a design from a modern Central Bank of Kuwait banknote dated 1st April 2011, while the right vignette depicts an early Kuwaiti banknote featuring a traditional sailing dhow, referencing the first currency issue of 1st April 1961. The entire composition is rendered in high-relief proof against a mirror-polished field, with fine reeding visible at the coin's periphery.
