| Additional information |
Oman's silver commemorative program has long targeted the collector market rather than circulation, and this issue follows that pattern — produced for the Central Bank with controlled mintages sold directly through official channels. The wooden industries theme draws on Oman's dhow-building tradition, centered historically in Sur, where craftsmen used teak imported from India to construct vessels that dominated Indian Ocean trade routes for centuries.
