| Opmerkingen |
Bahrain's 1973 issue marked the first independent currency series following the dinar's formal decoupling from the Indian rupee system that had served the Gulf states through the colonial period. The Bahrain Monetary Agency, established only in 1973 itself, issued this series essentially at its own founding — the institution and its banknotes came into existence simultaneously.
Thomas De La Rue produced the entire 1973 series, a standard arrangement for newly independent Gulf states at the time. The 20 dinar denomination was the highest value in this first BMA issue, and high-denomination notes from this series disappeared from circulation quickly once later series arrived.
