The national arms of Oman — crossed khanjar daggers over two crossed swords — appear as a vignette to the right of centre, rendered in intaglio. Arabic inscriptions identifying the Central Bank of Oman and the denomination خمسة ريالات (Five Rials) are set within a decorative cartouche at centre, with the serial number printed twice in red-brown at upper right and lower left, enclosed by an ornate floral border. |

| Reverse description | Printed in shades of rose-pink and pale lilac, the reverse carries a landscape vignette of Nizwa fortress, its distinctive round tower and battlemented walls set against a backdrop of palm trees and the Hajar Mountains rendered in fine intaglio line work. A multicoloured guilloche band runs along the lower portion of the design. The English inscriptions CENTRAL BANK OF OMAN and FIVE RIALS appear in letterpress at the top and bottom of the note respectively, framed by a symmetrical ornamental border. |
