A new coin.
This impressive 5 Riyals silver proof coin from the State of Fujairah, issued in 1970, commemorates the Munich 1972 Summer Olympic Games, a landmark global sporting event symbolizing unity and peaceful competition. Struck in exceptional Proof quality and certified PCGS PR68DCAM, the coin features deep mirror fields contrasted by frosted high-relief details, giving the design remarkable clarity and elegance.
The obverse showcases a dynamic Olympic composition: the iconic five Olympic rings form the central structure, intersected by the bold inscription “MUNCHEN 1972.” Above, a stylized Olympic torch with a sweeping flame rises beside the word “OLYMPIA,” while a detailed skyline of towers and domes stretches across the upper edge. Within the rings, a running athlete and a heraldic shield add motion and symbolism. Fine Arabic inscriptions and ornamental details complete the intricate design.
The reverse presents the official coat of arms of Fujairah: a central shield with crossed flags and crossed rifles, surrounded by inscriptions including “State of Fujairah,” the denomination “5 Riyals,” and the date 1970, all framed by a beaded border.
A striking blend of Olympic heritage and Middle Eastern artistry, this certified coin is a standout collectible with strong historical appeal.
