Ajman Set Rashid Flags Chick KM-1.1 KM-2.1 KM-3.1 sealed silver coins 1969

The Ajman & Dependencies Rashid commemorative silver coin set, issued in 1969, represents an early and highly symbolic numismatic series from the Trucial States period. This matte silver set includes three related issues cataloged as KM-1.1, KM-2.1, and KM-3.1, unified by a shared national and cultural theme expressed through clear visual symbolism.

The reverse design features a detailed depiction of a chick standing in profile, with finely rendered feathers, legs, and beak. Above the bird are two crossed flags mounted on flagpoles, each showing linear striping and decorative finials at the top. Between the flags appears an ornamental central emblem element. Along the lower edge is the date “1969,” flanked by small decorative marks, while a dotted border frames the entire composition.

The obverse displays the denomination “5 RIYALS” prominently in the center, with Arabic numerals and Arabic script above it. Surrounding inscriptions read “GOVERNMENT OF AJMAN & ITS DEPENDENCIES” in English along the lower rim, while Arabic inscriptions run along the upper arc. Small stars appear on both sides of the field, and a beaded border encircles the design.

These coins reflect themes of nation-building, governance, and identity during a formative historical period. With their distinctive matte finish, clear inscriptions, and symbolic imagery, this set is an appealing choice for collectors of Middle Eastern coinage and early Gulf state issues.
