As KM#31, but with legend: "King of Arab Lands"
It is said that the regal legend on this coin claiming sovereign over the Lands of Arabia outraged other Arab leaders, in particular King 'Abd al-'Aziz, then ruler of the Najd. In order to placate his critics, al-Hasayn bin 'Ali ordered that the offending legend be amended to "The Renaissance of Arab Lands"
