| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse bears a three-line Arabic inscription arranged in a gently curved, cartouche-like layout across the upper and central field, reading سلطان مسقط وعمان (Sultan of Muscat and Oman) on the first line and سعيد بن تيمور (Said bin Taimur) on the second line, identifying the ruling sultan. Below, in the lower field, the Hijri date ١٣٦٥ (1365 AH, corresponding to 1946 AD) is prominently inscribed in large Arabic-Indic numerals. The plain field and clean lettering reflect the restrained, functional style typical of Royal Mint-produced colonial issues of the mid-twentieth century. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Said bin Taimur introduced this coinage in 1946 as part of a broader currency reform for the Sultanate, replacing an older series that had relied heavily on the Indian rupee ecosystem. The timing is notable — Britain was simultaneously dismantling its Indian imperial infrastructure, and smaller Gulf states were quietly establishing independent monetary identities before the transition left them exposed.
Said's conservatism as a ruler was legendary; he resisted roads, schools, and oil development with equal stubbornness until his own son deposed him in a palace coup in 1970.
