1994 Iraq 50 Dinars PMG 66 EPQ Pick 83 – Saddam Hussein Portrait & Baghdad Bridge – Gem Uncirculated

Offered here is a 1994 Iraq 50 Dinars banknote, catalogued as Pick #83, graded PMG 66 EPQ Gem Uncirculated. This issue, printed under the regime of Saddam Hussein, is both historically significant and visually striking, representing one of the most iconic notes of 1990s Iraq.

The obverse features a detailed engraved portrait of Saddam Hussein, then-President of Iraq, positioned prominently on the right. The background includes intricate arabesque patterns and geometric security designs in subdued earthy tones, giving the note a traditional yet authoritative aesthetic.

The reverse depicts the Baghdad suspension bridge project, known as the Jisr al-Jumhuriya, symbolizing modernization and infrastructure development. The architectural design is framed by ornate borders, combining both national pride and artistic craftsmanship.

The watermark is a horse’s head, a recurring motif in Iraqi banknotes of the period, serving as an anti-counterfeiting feature.

Certified PMG 66 EPQ Gem Uncirculated, this note boasts original paper quality, sharp inks, perfect centering, and strong embossing, making it one of the finest surviving examples of this denomination.

Collector’s Value:
The 1994 50 Dinars is a sought-after piece due to its association with Iraq’s modern history and Saddam-era iconography. High-grade examples such as this, especially with the Exceptional Paper Quality (EPQ) designation, are scarce and highly desirable to collectors of Middle Eastern banknotes and world currency history.
