Half Dinar coin Jordan

Half Dinar — Jordan (Bimetallic)

This Half Dinar is a striking bimetallic coin of the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan, with a golden outer ring surrounding a pale silver-coloured centre and a distinctive seven-sided, scalloped outline. The example shown carries the year 2000, and the two-tone construction and heptagonal shape made it easy to distinguish from other denominations by sight and touch. As a high-value circulating coin — half of one Jordanian dinar — it was designed for durability and security in everyday use.

On the obverse, a bare-headed royal portrait of the reigning Hashemite monarch, King Abdullah II, faces right within the silver-coloured centre, dressed in a suit. Arabic inscriptions naming the king and the kingdom run around the golden ring, framed by the coin’s angular border.

On the reverse, an ornate arabesque medallion of interlaced arabesques fills the centre, enclosing the value expressed as the fraction “½”. The legend “THE HASHEMITE KINGDOM OF JORDAN” arcs across the top, while “HALF DINAR” and its Arabic equivalent appear to the sides and foot, with the date set along the lower rim. The decorative treatment reflects the traditional ornament seen across modern Jordanian coinage.
