Where & when
What's on the note
Front: Hammurabi (c. 1810–1750 BCE), sixth king of the First Babylonian Dynasty, depicted at left with his famous law code stele. Hammurabi is renowned for the Code of Hammurabi, one of the oldest deciphered writings of significant length in the world, establishing one of the earliest known systems of justice. Center shows an agricultural scene with a grain silo and wheat fields, representing Iraq's agricultural heritage in the Mesopotamian heartland. Text 'FIVE DINARS' at lower center; 'CENTRAL BANK OF IRAQ' at top in English.
Back: Two Arabian horses (mare and foal) at center, representing Iraq's celebrated tradition of Arabian horse breeding. The Arabian horse is one of the oldest horse breeds, with origins tracing to the Arabian Peninsula, and Iraq historically was a major center for breeding these prized animals. Arabic inscriptions include 'البنك المركزي العراقي' (Central Bank of Iraq) at top and legal tender text. Serial number visible at left in Arabic-Indic numerals.

Background & history
This 5 Dinar note is from the Central Bank of Iraq series issued between 1973 and 1991, during the Ba'athist era under Saddam Hussein. The design emphasizes Iraq's ancient Mesopotamian heritage through Hammurabi, who ruled Babylon and created one of history's first comprehensive legal codes. The inclusion of Arabian horses reflects Iraq's role in breeding and preserving this ancient breed. These notes were withdrawn and demonetized following the 1991 Gulf War, when new series were introduced. The Pick reference P-70 applies to this design type with the Hammurabi portrait and horse reverse. No printed issue year appears on the note itself, and the Central Bank of Iraq did not employ a documented serial-number-year encoding system during this period. Dating must rely on the known circulation period of this design series (1973–1991). The watermark shows a horse head, reinforcing the equestrian theme.
