Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the ¼ Anna - Said coin from Muscat and Oman is that it features a unique countermark, which is a large 10mm stamped letter "S" on the reverse side of the coin. This countermark was applied by the Sultanate of Oman to indicate that the coin was issued during the reign of Sultan Said bin Taimur, who ruled from 1932 to 1971. The countermark is a distinctive feature that sets this coin apart from other coins of the same denomination and era, making it a valuable collector's item for numismatists.
