| 裏面の説明 | The central vignette presents a detailed interior view of the Prophet's Mosque in Medina, with its characteristic horseshoe arches and colonnaded hall rendered in green and multicolour intaglio. To the right, a large geometric guilloche medallion in the form of an eight-pointed star serves as the primary decorative element. The English inscriptions 'SAUDI ARABIAN MONETARY AGENCY' and 'FIFTY RIYALS' appear at the top and bottom respectively, with the numeral '50' repeated at each corner. |

The Saudi Arabian Monetary Agency's Hajj Pilgrim Receipt series, of which this note forms a part, was originally conceived to prevent the export of Saudi riyals abroad by the millions of pilgrims arriving annually for the hajj. Foreign pilgrims were issued these receipts in exchange for their home currency, usable within the Kingdom but theoretically non-negotiable outside it. The policy was never fully enforced, and the notes circulated freely.
Thomas De La Rue produced the series across a remarkably long print run — fifteen years — which accounts for the considerable variation in serial number prefixes and signature combinations collectors encounter within P#19 alone.
