Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Kuwaiti 50 Dinars - Sabah IV coin is that it has a unique design feature. The coin's obverse side features a portrait of the late Emir of Kuwait, Sheikh Sabah IV, while the reverse side features a depiction of a traditional Kuwaiti boat, known as a "dhow," sailing through the waters of the Arabian Gulf. This design was chosen to symbolize Kuwait's rich maritime history and its connection to the sea.
