10 Rupees, Persian Gulf Issue, 1959. Graded (VF)

Ten Rupee Banknote - issued by the Reserve Bank of India for use in the Persian Gulf countries of the United Arab Emirates, Kuwait, Oman, Bahrain and Qatar. Signed by HVR Iyengar. This note was equal to Ten Indian Rupee note, and had an identical size and design, but was colored differently to distinguish it from the INR.

Many of the Gulf countries did not have currencies of their own till 1970, and used the Indian rupee. After 1947, the Indian government wanted to stop the outflow of hard currencies from India via the Gulf route. These notes were introduced in 1959 to replace the Indian banknotes that were being used in the Gulf states, and were meant for exclusive circulation outside the country, and were not legal tender in India. This currency was abandoned after the devaluation of the Indian rupee in the late 1960s - most of the currencies of Gulf countries date from after 1969.
