Ajman also had five riyals struck for Dag Hammarskjöld, Gandhi, M. L. King, Geo. Marshall, Bertrand Russell, Albert Schweitzer, Jan Palach, Albert Luthuli and the F.A.O. All of Ajman's coinage was struck 1969-70. The sheikdom joined the United Arab Emirates and coinage ceased. Gamal Nasser (1918-70), president of Egypt 1954-70, was the hero of Arab nationalism and the resistance to Israel. His pharaonic rule set the pattern for Egyptian leaders to this day.
