| Beschrijving keerzijde | The central intaglio vignette presents Seif Palace in Kuwait City, its crenellated walls, arched gateways, and clock tower executed in fine line engraving against a pale guilloche underprint. The English legend 'Central Bank of Kuwait' runs across the top in dark blue letterpress, with 'Five Dinars' at lower right; the denomination numeral '5' recurs in four guilloche cartouches at the corners. A multicoloured geometric Islamic rosette and two decorative globe-like vignettes occupy the lower centre register. |

| Opmerkingen |
Kuwait's 1990 Iraqi invasion created one of the more unusual security crises in modern banknote history. Iraqi forces looted the Central Bank's vaults and seized substantial stocks of unissued currency — including notes from this series — which subsequently appeared in circulation inside Iraq and on regional black markets. The Kuwaiti government responded after liberation by demonetizing the entire series almost immediately, rendering all outstanding notes worthless regardless of origin.
Serial number prefixes 18 through 20 are specifically attributed to the stolen consignment. Notes bearing those prefixes are technically invalid but remain collectible precisely because of that provenance.
