Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the ¼ Anna - Said coin from Muscat and Oman is that it was countermarked with a small 8mm countermark, which indicates that it was issued during a time of economic turmoil and currency shortages in the region. The countermark was used to validate the coin's authenticity and value, and it's a unique feature that sets this coin apart from other coins of the same era.
