Description
Jordan — Complete 7-Coin Mint Set (1 Fil, 1 Fils, 5, 10, 20, 50, 100 Fils), 1949 (AH 1368) · KM-1 through KM-7 · All NGC MS 65 matched
The first coins ever struck for the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan, issued under King Abdullah I — grandfather of present-day King Abdullah II — just three years after independence from British mandate. All seven denominations graded NGC MS 65 and matched as a unified set, from the humble 1 Fil bronze through the key-date 50 and 100 Fils copper-nickel. A complete mint-state set of this quality takes years, not months, to assemble: across three decades of NGC and PCGS grading, only 54 examples of the 50 Fils and 53 of the 100 Fils have ever achieved any mint-state grade — a testament to how few survived 75 years in gem condition. This set was built over three decades of targeted acquisition from the world’s largest private holding of graded 1949 Jordan coinage. Suited for an advanced Middle Eastern collection, a prestige diplomatic or royal presentation, or anyone seeking a tangible piece of Jordan’s founding.
