٠‎ ١‎ ٢‎ ٣‎ ٤‎  ٥‎‎ ٦‎ ٧‎ ٨‎ ٩ - these are East Arabic numerals (used e.g. in UAE)
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 - corresponding West Arabic numerals (used by us)

So, the dirham has written ١٩٩٥‎ - ١٤‎‎١٥‎  which means 1995 (AD) - 1415 (AH) :)

that´s what Andy said shortly.

Thanks superman
I did the obvious search for 1990 which is what it looks like then decided to ask.
Always a good day when you learn something new.

These pages are very useful for countries with different calenders:

I'm not an expert in any kind of coins, but I reckon I'm good at research and will do my best to help. Feel free to tell me my identifications/valuations/gradings are wrong. It's the only way I'll learn.
