Obverse lettering FESSUL BIN TURKEE IMAM OF MUSCAT AND OMAN مسقط في ضرب ٥١٣١ ANNA 1/4
Reverse description The reverse displays a three-line Arabic inscription within a central field enclosed by a stylized floral and foliate wreath border. The legend reads 'فيصل بن تركي سلطان عمان' (Faisal bin Turki, Sultan of Oman), identifying the ruling authority. The wreath, composed of palm or laurel-like branches tied at the base, frames the inscription symmetrically. The coin's milled edge is visible at the periphery, and the fields show the characteristic roughness of Muscat Mint hand-press production.
