AR Ryal Faransi nd. (KM X2) countermarked with 1/16 Ahmadi Ryal dies AH1371 (1951/52) on 1780 Maria Theresia Taler - UNC, very rare The countermark dies appear to be dies from the San'a mint. It has been suggested that there were struck at the San'a mint by request of the same individuals who produced all the fantasy countermarks of Nejd, Hejaz, Pemba, etc., in the early to mid 1960s. It is also conceivable that the official Yemeni dies somehow appeared in the market during the Yemeni 1962-1969 civil war
