The Central Bank of Oman has issued a new commemorative coin highlighting on a nation-wide initiative.
The official Oman Vision 2040 logo is depicted with colour on the obverse side.
Oman Vision 2040 is the national reference for economic and social planning for the period commencing in 2021 and up to 2040, integrating national sector strategies and five-year development plans. It was put in place under the initiative of His Majesty the late Sultan Qaboos Bin Said, and carried forward by successor, Sultan Haitham Bin Tarik.
An independent country since the 23rd July 1970, it was on that day the Late Sultan Qaboos bin Said assumed power. During his direct rule, Oman initiated its path for modern resurgence and gradually started reclaiming its ancient exemplary past. It was the Late Sultan Qaboos who is widely credited with laying the foundations of a modern state that is based on balanced and sustainable development. On the 11th January 2020, that His Majesty Sultan Haitham bin Tariq came to the throne in a swift orderly transition, succeeding Sultan Qaboos. After being developed with extensive participation from all sectors of the Omani communities, Oman Vision 2040 was approved by Sultan Haitham Bin Tarik in 2020, and was put into action as of early January 2021 and will remain in force until 2040. The four primary focuses or pillars of the initiative include representing Omani culture, the economy, government affairs and the rights & responsibilities of Omani citizenship.
Renewable energy, diversified sources of energy, and rationalised consumption to achieve energy security has taken a primary position along with sustainable environmental ecosystems of high quality and free from pollution. Food and water security is another primary goal of this Middle Eastern sultanate which is hoped to be achieved through renewable resources, advanced technologies and optimal exploitation of Oman’s strategic location and biodiversity. In practice, the initiative means to encourage investing in digital infrastructure, the R&D sector and nurturing new industries.
The Coin:
The Reverse of the 1 (One) Rial Silver Coin prominently displays the Oman Vision 2040 logo and includes applied colour to the primary elements. Just below, elements such as modern transport, skyscrapers and familiar landmarks representing the capital city of Muscat, wind turbines which focus on renewable energy and natural landscapes of the desert kingdom.
Above the primary design and along the periphery is the inscription and motto of Oman Vision 2040 which is also shown below the design in English moving forward hastily and confidently.
The Obverse of the 1 (One) Rial Silver Coin features the Omani national emblem which depicts a khanjar or, traditional curved dagger inside its sheath, superimposed over two crossed swords.
The khanjar is placed in the centre, with the crossed swords behind it. Below the emblem is the English text “SULTANATE OF OMAN” and the same in Arabic script appears above the crest.
To the right is the coins’ denomination of “ONE RIAL” and the same appears to the right in Arabic script.
The year “2025” is shown just below the crossed swords. Below the primary design is the English text “CENTRAL BANK OF OMAN” and the same is shown above the design in Arabic text. The whole of the design is surrounded with a beaded border.
