Comment
Large date for 1430, smaller date for 1433 and 1435Interesting fact
The ¼ Riyal / 25 Halālah coin featuring Abdullāh (2009-2014) is the first coin in the Saudi Arabian currency system to feature a portrait of a king. Prior to this coin's release, Saudi Arabian coins did not feature any portraits of kings or other individuals. This change in design was seen as a significant departure from tradition and was met with some controversy at the time.
