All Saudi banknotes from 2005 and after are put in the christian/Gregorian celnder, but they all feature the Islamic calender as well. Could these be changed to follow the guidelines about the local calender taking presedence over the Gregorian calender?

 

Beside all those from 2005 to date, there are also these 2 which need changing:

N#216668

N#209655

I think Saudi Arabia switched calendar only in 2016.

And to which dates I should change them? I am not so fluent with islamic calendars.

Had to find a date converter myself:

But since the new year falls differently from the Christian, it can be hard to tell, if it's the correct Islamic year, without pictures. 

 

This note should have 1424

N#216668

 

1372 for this one:

N#209655

 

For the rest of the notes which is using the Christian calendar, instead of the Islamic, here is the used year and the Islamic years:

2007 → 1428

2009 → 1430

2012 → 1433

2016 → 1437

2017 → 1438

2020 → 1441

2021 → 1442

2023 → 1444

2024 → 1445

 

Thanks :D
