Obverse description At center, the national emblem of Saudi Arabia comprising two crossed swords beneath a palm tree, all rendered in relief. The Hijri and Gregorian dates flank the emblem on either side. A bold Arabic legend curves above the central device identifying the ruling monarch, with a further legend below denoting his full royal title and the name of the kingdom.

Below the central circle, a two-line Arabic legend states the denomination in words: 'One Riyal / One Hundred Halalah.'
