Beschrijving keerzijde The entire reverse field is occupied by a four-line Arabic inscription in bold, elegant script, reading 'الواثق بالله / سعيد بن تيمور / سلطان مسقط / وعمان' (Confident in God, Said bin Taimur, Sultan of Muscat and Oman). The text fills the available field within the scalloped octagonal border, with no additional decorative elements. The lettering is raised and cleanly struck, displaying the ruler's religious epithet and full royal title in a formal calligraphic style.

Aanvullende informatie

Dhofar was not an independent state but a sultanate-within-a-sultanate — a semi-autonomous province ruled by Said bin Taimur before he seized power in Muscat and Oman in 1932. These Dhofari issues were struck for local circulation in a region geographically and culturally distinct from the rest of Oman, separated by hundreds of miles of empty desert. The coinage was effectively a political instrument, reinforcing Said's authority over a province his own father had struggled to hold.

Production was handled by the Bombay Mint, the default facility for Gulf and South Asian subsidiary coinages of the period.
