Libya's 1979 coinage was issued under the Jamahiriya system Gaddafi had formally declared two years earlier — a stateless state, theoretically governed by the masses through People's Committees, which created genuine bureaucratic complications for something as mundane as authorizing a coin series. The Central Bank nominally remained the issuing authority, an awkward arrangement given that centralized institutions were ideologically incompatible with the Jamahiriya model.
The copper-nickel clad steel composition reflects a broader cost-cutting shift seen across North African mints in the late 1970s as silver and solid copper-nickel gave way to cheaper clad alternatives. KM#21 is not scarce in any grade.
