| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field features Arabic inscriptions within a beaded central circle, with the regnal legend of Sultan Faisal bin Turki. The inscription is presented in a bold, angular calligraphic style typical of late 19th-century Omani coinage. A plain border surrounds the beaded circle, with the overall design occupying the full face of the coin. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Sultanate of Muscat and Oman struck copper fractional currency in the late nineteenth century largely to address the practical demands of Indian Ocean trade, where small-denomination coinage was perpetually short. Faisal bin Turki, who ruled from 1888 until his death in 1913, issued coinage under British political supervision — the Sultanate was a British protectorate in all but formal name, and monetary decisions were rarely made in isolation from Muscat's relationship with the Government of India.
The beaded central circle variety of KM#14 is a recognized die distinction from the plain circle type, worth separating in any serious collection of Gulf states coinage.
