Fujairah 5 riyals Munchen Summer Olympic Games PR68 PCGS proof silver coin 1970

This refined 5 Riyals silver proof coin from the State of Fujairah, issued in 1970, honors the Munich 1972 Summer Olympic Games—one of the most significant international sporting events of the modern era. Struck in Proof quality and graded PCGS PR68DCAM, the coin displays deep mirror-like surfaces with frosted design elements, enhanced by a subtle natural toning that adds character and visual depth.

The obverse presents a striking Olympic-themed composition: the iconic Olympic rings dominate the center, intersected by the inscription “MUNCHEN 1972.” Above them, a stylized Olympic torch with a flowing flame symbolizes unity and the enduring Olympic spirit. A detailed city skyline with towers and domes stretches across the upper field, while within the rings a running athlete figure and a heraldic shield create a sense of motion and symbolism. Arabic inscriptions and fine ornamental details enrich the design.

The reverse features the coat of arms of Fujairah: a central shield flanked by crossed flags and crossed rifles, representing heritage and strength. Surrounding legends include “State of Fujairah,” the denomination “5 Riyals,” and the date 1970, all framed by a beaded border.

A beautiful combination of Olympic history and Middle Eastern numismatic art, this certified coin is a desirable addition to any serious collection.
