10 Dinars

The Jordan Currency Board was a transitional authority, established after the country's formal separation from the British Mandate monetary system and operating only until the Central Bank of Jordan took over in 1964. This 10 Dinar note belongs to the board's earliest emission series — the 1952 issue was the first to carry the Hashemite Kingdom's name in that denomination, and the print run was relatively modest by De La Rue standards of the period.

De La Rue had been printing currency for the region since the Palestine Currency Board era, and the institutional continuity shows in the technical approach. P#8 is the highest denomination in the 1952 series, which makes it the note most frequently encountered in hoarded rather than circulated condition.
