| Obverse description | Central design features the denomination '100 Fils' rendered in Arabic numerals within a raised inner circle. The state name 'الكويت' (Kuwait) appears as a legend in Arabic script arching above the central circle, while the English transliteration 'KUWAIT' is inscribed below. The composition of the legend in both Arabic and Latin scripts reflects Kuwait's bilingual official usage. The field is plain and unadorned, emphasizing the inscriptions. |
