The Hijri date '١٤٢٧' appears to the lower left of the cartouche and the Gregorian year '2006' to the lower right.

Additional information

Kurdistan has never achieved recognized statehood, and no official Kurdish monetary authority exists — this piece is a fantasy issue, produced for the collector market rather than for any actual circulation. The X# prefix in Krause's catalog designates it explicitly as such. These were struck privately, almost certainly outside the region itself, as political sympathizer items during a period when Kurdish autonomy in northern Iraq was expanding following the 2003 invasion but remained constitutionally unresolved.
