I've been trying to find an answer. South Arabia historically included all of Yemen yet also parts of Saudi Arabia and Oman. Since Yemen is the only country that is presently on the Rial/Fil is my assumption that this is a Yemeni coin correct? I've searched Numista and have come up empty. Is this some sort of commemorative coin? Thanks in Advance.

I believe South Arabia is essentially Yemen before it was called so. My history is a bit rusty but I believe in the 1960's there was a period of civil war in the area involving colonial Aden...
