| Obverse description | At center, the national emblem of Oman — comprising two crossed khanjar daggers overlaid by a sword — rendered in high relief against a mirror-polished field. Flanking the emblem horizontally are the bilingual denomination inscriptions: 'ONE RIAL' to the left and 'ريال واحد' to the right. An inner circular legend reads 'SULTANATE OF OMAN' below the emblem in Latin script. The outer border carries a continuous bilingual legend in Arabic along the upper arc reading 'البنك المركزي العماني' and 'سلطنة عمان', with 'CENTRAL BANK OF OMAN' completing the lower arc in Latin script. The entire design is framed by a beaded border. |

| Reverse description | The central field displays the large numeral '2340815' — the official population count recorded during the December 2003 census — in bold raised figures within a double-ring circle. Above the numeral, a bilingual arc legend reads 'التعداد السكاني' in Arabic and 'POPULATION CENSUS' in Latin script. Below, the bilingual date inscription 'ديسمبر 2003 DECEMBER 2003' curves around the lower arc. The broad outer border is decorated with a repeating series of twelve rectangular cartouches, each containing the Omani national emblem of crossed khanjar daggers and sword, separated by additional emblem motifs, creating an ornate calendrical or heraldic surround. |
