This transitional batch marks the shift of monetary authority to the Central Bank of the UAE and features the sweeping coinage reform of 1988-1989. To optimize public circulation, the physical size of high-value coins was drastically reduced; the iconic 1 Dirham was shrunk from 28.5mm to a compact 24mm format, and the circular 50 Fils underwent a similar downsizing. The series also introduced modernized, bolder Arabic fonts for improved legibility.
