Issued under the British-administered Iraqi government during a period of acute political instability — the pro-Axis Rashid Ali coup of May 1941 had just been suppressed by British military force when this series entered circulation. The wartime relationship between London and Baghdad made De La Rue the unambiguous choice for printing, as the firm already handled much of Britain's colonial currency work and had the security infrastructure no local printer could offer.
The half-dinar denomination was the smallest in this government issue series, intended for everyday transactional use at a time when the Iraqi economy was heavily shaped by British military expenditure in the region.
