Saudi Arabia
Abd Al-Aziz Bin Sa'ud gold 4 Pounds ND (1945-1946) AU58 NGC, Philadelphia mint, KM34. A curious and enigmatic issue struck in the equivalent of a four Sovereign weight, issued to pay the Saudi Arabian government for oil rights. Interesting for the era of production, where private ownership of gold in the United States was illegal while the government was producing these pieces for foreign governments.
