The Bahrain Currency Board was established in 1964 specifically to replace the Indian rupee, which had circulated in Bahrain as official tender under a longstanding arrangement with the Persian Gulf states. When India devalued the rupee in June 1966, Bahrain's early exit from that system — this note was already in circulation — proved a significant economic buffer.
Thomas De La Rue printed the entire inaugural series. The 1 Dinar was the workhorse denomination and saw heavy use through the late 1960s before the Currency Board itself was dissolved and replaced by the Bahrain Monetary Agency in 1973.
