5 Iraqi Dinar banknote featuring a portrait of Saddam Hussein. This specific note is part of the "Saddam Dinar" series issued by the Central Bank of Iraq.
Here are some details about this banknote:
Issuance Date: The note was issued in 1992 (corresponding to the Islamic year 1412 AH), after the first Gulf War and the imposition of UN sanctions on Iraq, which led to the production of new, lower-quality banknotes compared to the earlier "Swiss Dinar" series.
Historical Context: These "Saddam Dinars" rapidly devalued due to the sanctions and excessive government printing, in contrast to the more stable "Swiss Dinars" that continued to circulate in the Kurdish regions of Iraq.
Portrait: The banknote prominently features the portrait of Saddam Hussein, who was the President of Iraq at the time of its issuance.
Collectibility: These banknotes are considered collectibles, particularly those in uncirculated or "crisp" condition, and are often sought after as memorabilia from the Gulf War era.
