Product Details

This bronze 1/40 Riyal was issued in AH 1383 (AD 1963–1964) during the early years of the Yemen Arab Republic, following the 1962 revolution that ended the Mutawakkilite Kingdom of Yemen. It represents one of the small-denomination coins introduced to facilitate everyday transactions.

Struck in bronze, the coin reflects the transition of Yemen’s monetary system from royal to republican coinage. Its modest denomination made it suitable for low-value commercial exchanges and daily circulation throughout the country.

The 1/40 Riyal forms part of the first republican coin series and is of historical interest as a witness to a major political and monetary transformation in modern Yemeni history. Today, it remains a collectible piece valued by numismatists specializing in the coinage of the Arabian Peninsula.
