| Obverse description | Central device features the national emblem of Oman — a pair of crossed khanjar daggers overlaid on two crossed swords, all rendered in fine relief within the field. The legend 'CENTRAL BANK OF OMAN' arcs along the lower periphery in Latin script, while the Arabic inscription 'البنك المركزي العماني' curves along the upper border. The denomination 'ONE RIAL' appears in Latin script to the left of the emblem, with its Arabic equivalent 'ريال واحد' to the right. Two six-pointed stars flank the central device at mid-field. The inscriptions 'SULTANATE OF OMAN' and 'سلطنة عمان' appear respectively below and above the emblem. |

| Reverse description | The reverse depicts a detailed relief view of the Al Nahda Tower (Burj Al Nahda) in Muscat, a historic fortification rendered in the centre of the field, flanked by a palm tree to the right and low scrubland to the left, conveying a sense of the Omani landscape. The Arabic legend 'العيد الوطني السابع والعشرون' arcs along the upper border, with the date '١٩٩٧' at upper right and the denomination 'ريال ١' also in Arabic script. The English inscription 'TWENTY SEVENTH NATIONAL DAY ANNIVERSARY' curves along the lower periphery, with the Gregorian year '1997' appearing in the lower field. The overall design commemorates the 27th National Day of the Sultanate of Oman. |
