| Obverse description | The national emblem of Qatar occupies the central field, depicting two crossed curved swords with a traditional dhow under sail on stylized waves, flanked by a palm-tree-bearing island. The legend in Arabic appears along the upper periphery, reading 'State of Qatar,' with the Hijri and Gregorian dual dates inscribed in the upper legend. The design is rendered in low relief against a plain field, characteristic of modern Gulf state coinage. |
