10 Riyals - Mohammed Apollo XIII

Fujairah was among the smallest and most financially marginal of the Trucial States, and its 1969–1971 commemorative coin program was nakedly commercial — produced not for circulation but for sale to foreign collectors through agencies like Imperia in Vaduz. The "Mohammed Apollo XIII" designation refers to the Apollo 13 mission of April 1970, though the naming convention grafting the ruling sheikh's name onto a NASA mission title was a marketing device with no official NASA endorsement or diplomatic significance whatsoever.

Apollo 13 never landed on the moon. Commemorating a near-disaster was an unusual sales pitch, though it apparently worked — dozens of Trucial State issues from this period flooded the collector market simultaneously.
