To mark the 46th National Day, the Central Bank of Oman released a set of five silver commemorative coins featuring vibrant colors and showcasing images representing various Omani craft industries.
The traditional industries of Oman reflect the nation's abundant cultural heritage, with many of these practices enduring for centuries. Ranging from weaving and pottery to date farming and fishing, these industries have significantly contributed to both the economy and cultural identity of the country.
Qaboos bin Said Al Said (1940–2020) was the Sultan of Oman from 23 July 1970 until his death. A fifteenth-generation descendant of the founder of the House of Al Said, he was the longest-serving leader in the Middle East and Arab world at the time of his death.
