| Comments |
Oman's shift to polymer for this denomination marks a notable step for a Gulf issuer that has historically favored high-quality cotton-based notes. G+D's Leipzig facility has produced polymer currency for numerous central banks, but Gulf state adoptions remain relatively rare — regional humidity and temperature extremes have long been cited internally by issuing authorities as justification for the switch from paper.
The dual dating reflects the Hijri year 1447 alongside the Gregorian 2025, consistent with Omani practice across recent issues.
