| Reverse description | Central device depicts the national emblem of Oman — a crossed khanjar dagger and two crossed swords — rendered in fine detail against a polished proof field. To the left of the emblem the denomination '1/2 RIAL' is inscribed in Latin characters, while the Arabic denomination 'نصف ريال' appears to the right. A curved Arabic legend commemorating the 250th anniversary of the Al Bu Said dynasty arcs across the upper field, and the corresponding Latin legend '250TH ANNIVERSARY OF ALBU-SAID DYNASTY' curves along the lower margin. The entire central composition is framed by the same elaborate arabesque foliate border seen on the obverse. |
