Reverse description The reverse presents a bold, radiating arrangement of large Arabic calligraphic legends filling the field. A central circular cartouche bears the Arabic inscription 'ربع ريال' (Quarter Riyal). Surrounding this central device, the denomination is expressed in three forms: the Arabic-script numeral ٢٥ to the right, the Western numeral 25 to the left, and the spelled-out Arabic legend 'خمسة و عشرون هللة' (Twenty-five Halalas) arcing across the upper field — notably employing the feminine grammatical form 'خمسة' rather than the grammatically correct masculine 'خمسون', constituting the die error for which this variety is catalogued. The Hijri date ١٣٩٢ appears along the lower field.
