Beschrijving keerzijde A detailed architectural view of Buraimi Fort is depicted in the centre of the field, rendered in fine engraved relief showing the fort's elongated facade with crenellated walls, arched gateways, circular towers, and a flag flying atop the tallest tower at right. The Arabic legend 'قلعة البريمي' (Buraimi Fort) arcs prominently along the upper portion of the field. Below the fort, the English inscription 'BURAIMI FORT' appears in bold serif lettering, with the dual date '1416H-1995G' inscribed along the lower left and its Arabic equivalent '١٤١٦هـ - ١٩٩٥م' along the lower right.

Aanvullende informatie

Buraimi sits at the edge of the Rub' al Khali on the Omani-Emirati border, and its ownership was the subject of a territorial dispute that festered from the late 1940s until Saudi Arabia formally renounced its claim in 1974. The fort commemorated here was at the geographic center of that standoff, which at various points involved Saudi-backed tribal infiltration, British political officers, and an abortive arbitration in Geneva that collapsed in 1955.

The 1995 issue is part of Oman's ongoing architectural heritage series launched under Sultan Qaboos, which systematically documented fortifications across the country — many of which had been restored under his direct patronage after decades of neglect.
