Microlettering: A micro-text line in which the title of 'Central Bank of Kuwait' is repeated in Arabic at the front, and in English at the back of the banknote.
Latent Image: Vignette of a traditional Water Vessel is used as supporting ornament to carry the latent image which represents the Value Numeral "10". It becomes visible when the note is held up to the light and is tilted up and down at an acute angle at eye level.

One interesting aspect to the notes of this issue is the inclusion of the words ‘We seek God’s Assistance’ above the title of the issuing authority in Arabic on the front and English on the back of the notes. It is to be supposed that this inclusion may be due to the upheaval and distress caused by the invasion of Kuwait by Iraq.
