Rajam mam, this currency was used in Qatar & Dubai in earlier days. The upload of mine is from a note issued in 1961 by Qatar & Dubai Currency Board (50 Riyals). Mahalakshmi

JKM sir, I have already this question. This currency was issued by Qatar & Dubai Currency Board in 1961. It was in circulation both in Qatar and Dubai. This is a common currency used in these two countries (Dubai was seperate state by itself before formation of UAE country). Mahalakshmi
