10 Dinars

Jordan's first post-Hashemite Kingdom currency series launched in 1959 following the dissolution of the Arab Federation, a short-lived political union between Jordan and Iraq that collapsed after the Iraqi revolution of July 1958. The Central Bank itself had only been established that same year, replacing the Jordan Currency Board — so this note belongs to the very first series issued under the new institution's authority.

Thomas De La Rue handled the printing, as they did for the majority of newly independent Arab states in this period. The watermark is the sole security feature — modest even by late-1950s standards, but consistent across the series.
