| Beschrijving voorzijde | Draped bust of Sheikh Abdullah Al-Salim Al-Sabah facing slightly left, wearing a traditional Arab keffiyeh and agal, rendered in high relief with fine portraiture detail. A circular Arabic legend surrounds the effigy, running along the inner border of a beaded rim. The inscription identifies the ruler as His Highness Sheikh Abdullah Al-Salim Al-Sabah, Ruler of Kuwait. The field is smooth and unadorned, focusing attention on the portrait. The overall style reflects mid-twentieth century medallic artistry. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | A traditional Arabian dhow with full sails set, depicted in fine detail occupying the central field, conveying Kuwait's historic maritime heritage. The vessel is shown in profile facing left, with rigging and hull clearly delineated in a bold, medallic engraving style. Below the dhow, in the lower portion of the field, appears a dual-date legend in Arabic numerals. The design is enclosed by a beaded border running the full circumference of the coin. The composition is balanced and emblematic of Kuwait's identity as a seafaring nation. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Kuwait's Currency Board was established in 1960 specifically to issue the new Kuwaiti dinar following the country's monetary separation from the Persian Gulf rupee system. This pattern was produced ahead of that transition — the dinar launched in April 1961, just weeks before Kuwait formally ended its status as a British protectorate in June of that year. The gold denomination never entered circulation; the circulating series was struck only in base metals.
