Kuwait 1 Fils AH1390 (1971)
Coin Details
Issue Summary
The NGC label identifies this coin as AH1391//1971, but the coin is actually dated AH1390 (1971). AH1390 and AH1391 are separate Hijra year issues \u2014 the Gregorian year 1971 spans both.
Expected vs. Actual
Attribution
Impact
Incorrect population data for both AH1390 and AH1391 issues. May mislead collectors and registries about the actual year.
Notes
The Gregorian year 1971 straddles both AH1390 and AH1391. NGC apparently defaulted to AH1391 without verifying the actual Hijra date struck on the coin.
