Kuwait's first post-independence currency law, passed in 1960, established the Kuwaiti Dinar as one of the highest-valued currency units in the world — a position the 5 Dinar note occupied at the upper end of everyday commerce for most of its circulation life. Bradbury Wilkinson, printing from their New Malden facility, produced this series to the exacting intaglio standards the firm was known for across British Commonwealth and Gulf State contracts throughout the 1960s and 70s.
The series ran through the 1973 oil embargo and the accompanying surge in Kuwaiti state wealth, meaning notes from this issue circulated during one of the most economically turbulent periods the Gulf had seen. Pick 9 was succeeded by the 1980 Law series as Kuwait modernized its security printing requirements.
