Iraq 25,000 Dinars Banknote, P-102, NEW UNCIRCULATED Consecutive COA Included

This Iraq 25,000 Dinars banknote, attributed as Pick P-102, was issued by the Central Bank of Iraq and is offered in Uncirculated (Brand New) condition with a certificate included. The 25,000-dinar denomination is one of the major high-value notes of modern Iraqi currency and is distinguished by its predominantly red, tan, and multicolored design. P-102 belongs to the later series introduced with tactile and enhanced security features; multiple dates and subtypes exist within the P-102 designation, so the exact date and signature variety should be confirmed from the individual note.

The face presents an agricultural theme centered on a Kurdish peasant/farmer, together with cultivated wheat imagery and a tractor working the fields. This imagery connects the denomination with Iraq’s agricultural landscape and rural economy. The design is complemented by references to Iraq’s much deeper monetary and cultural history, creating a visual link between contemporary Iraqi life and the civilizations of ancient Mesopotamia.

The reverse is dominated by King Hammurabi and imagery derived from the famous Stele of Hammurabi. The ancient scene depicts Hammurabi before Shamash, the Mesopotamian sun god associated with justice. Hammurabi ruled Babylon approximately 1792–1750 BCE and greatly expanded Babylon’s political importance during the Old Babylonian period. His celebrated collection of legal decisions was based in part on earlier Mesopotamian legal traditions, so it is more accurately described as one of the ancient world’s most famous and influential surviving law collections rather than the first code of law in human history.

The note measures approximately 175–177 x 78 mm, or roughly 6.9 x 3.07 inches, depending on the specific P-102 printing. References identify P-102 notes as paper or hybrid-substrate issues depending on subtype, so an exact substrate attribution should be made only after confirming the particular printing. The principal color is red, with additional tan and multicolored elements.

Offered as Uncirculated (Brand New) with a COA, this Iraqi 25,000-dinar note combines modern Middle Eastern paper money with imagery recalling both Iraq’s agricultural heritage and ancient Babylon. The Hammurabi design gives the denomination particular appeal to collectors of Iraqi currency, Middle Eastern banknotes, legal-history themes, and notes featuring the civilizations of ancient Mesopotamia.
