| Reverse description | The reverse presents a detailed frontal view of Mirbat Fort, a historic coastal fortification in the Dhofar region of Oman, depicted in fine engraved relief. The fort is shown with its characteristic crenellated battlements, arched windows, a flagpole bearing a pennant atop the right tower, and sparse desert vegetation in the foreground, all set against a smooth, mirror-like proof field. The Arabic inscription 'حصن مرباط' (Mirbat Fort) arcs gracefully across the upper portion of the coin above the fortification. The composition is enclosed by a reeded inner border, framing the architectural subject with precision and clarity befitting a commemorative proof issue. |
