KM help on 1965 Yemen 1 Rial please

This coin seems to be absent from my 2005 Krause (or I am missing it?). Could someone give me the KM# and value in UNC?

Thanks muchly.

    Found it in 2006 Krause under "Royalist Government". KM#5 .7200 silver 6,000 minted. Unc. $14.50 BU $16.50.

    The legality of it's issue is questionable - it's a "government-in-exile" piece - so it's often deleted from the "real coins" catalogue and filed in the "Unusual World Coins" category. It's listed in my 1992 edition of UWC as X#1.

    Checked the 2005 (4th edition) of UWC and it lists the price as Unc. $25.00 and BU $50.00. Listed as X# A1.
