Due to changes made by other countries that controlled their currency, Dubai and Qatar for a short seven years issued their own joint coinage and currency system starting in 1966 following the Qatar-Dubai Currency Agreement that was signed by both countries.
Under the Qatar Dubai currency, coins were issued in the denominations of One, Five, 10, 25, and 50 Dirhams. The coins feature a sand gazelle on the obverse with the date in both lunar Hijri date and in Common Era date in Arabic with “Qatar and Dubai” in Arabic below. The reverse features the denomination in Arabic and “Qatar and Dubai” in English.
