New features to Bahrain banknotes

Manama : The Central Bank of Bahrain announced today that it will be issuing the BD5, BD1 and BD1/2 denominations of the fourth issue of the Bahraini dinar, with a change in the position and size of the identification feature for the visually impaired.

The new feature is a series of short raised lines on the right of the front side of the banknotes, which indicate the value of the note.

The BD1/2 has one line, BD1 has two lines and BD5 has three lines.

It is also worth noting that the Central Bank of Bahrain has previously changed the position and size of the identification feature for the BD20 and BD10 denominations in September 2016.
