Additional information

Somaliland declared independence from Somalia in 1991 following the collapse of the Barre regime, but has never received formal international recognition. Its coinage consequently occupies a peculiar legal position — technically issued by an unrecognized state, yet functioning as everyday currency within its borders. The KM#51 attribution places this within the standard Krause listings for Somaliland, which are cataloged as a practical matter despite the issuer's disputed status.

The "Full leaves" designation distinguishes this die variety from related strikes where the foliate detail is partially rendered — a distinction worth noting when attributing examples.
