| Obverse description | The Kuwaiti state arms are positioned at left, accompanied by a vignette of a historic fortress at lower right. A silver foil-enhanced falcon's head outline is applied at upper left, adjacent to the denomination numeral, serving as both a design element and security feature. Intricate guilloche underprint and geometric border patterns in multicolour tones frame the entire composition. |

Kuwait's fourth issue series, which includes this note, was introduced following the restoration of the Central Bank's operations after the Iraqi occupation ended in 1991. The printing stock and plates held by De La Rue were unaffected by the occupation, which allowed the new series to be produced without significant delay — an important factor given the urgency of restoring a functional currency after the Iraqis had systematically looted and printed unauthorized quantities of the third series notes.
Pick 28 is one of the less frequently encountered denominations from this issue in top grades, owing to its heavy use in commercial transactions.
