No, you'll get more for your Omani rials if you sell when the Omani rial buyback rate is low. This is due to a quirk of how British currency providers display their buyback exchange rates.
When you buy Omani rials, the exchange rate you get is the amount of Omani rials you'll receive for every pound that you spend, so for example a rate of 0.4871 means you'd get OR 0.4871 for each £1 that you spend. You can calculate the total amount of Omani rials you'd receive for a given amount of sterling by simply multiplying the sterling amount by the exchange rate.
When it comes to selling Omani rials, the buyback rate is expressed in terms of how many Omani rials you'd need to sell in order to get £1, so a buyback rate of 0.4871 means you'd need to sell OR 0.4871 to get £1. To calculate the sterling value of a given amount of Omani rials, you need to divide the Omani rial amount by the buyback rate. Since you're dividing by the buyback rate, a lower buyback rate means you'd get more sterling compared to a higher buyback rate.
One Omani rial can be subdivded into 1000 baisa. There are seven denominations of Omani rial banknotes in circulation: 100 baisa, 1/2 rial, 1 rial, 5 rials, 10 rials, 20 rials and 50 rials; and four coin denominations: 5 baisa, 10 baisa, 25 baisa and 50 baisa.
The current series of Omani rial banknotes in circulation is the 'Eighth Issue' or 'Omani Heritage' series. This series was introduced by the Central Bank of Oman, with the first notes released in 1995 and subsequent issues in 2000 and 2010. Each banknote in the series features unique designs that celebrate Oman's rich cultural heritage and natural landscapes. For example, the 1-rial note showcases a portrait of Sultan Qaboos bin Said al Said, the former ruler of Oman, on the obverse side, and features an image of the Omani Khanjar, a traditional curved dagger, on the reverse side. The higher denominations depict various scenes such as the Sultan Qaboos Grand Mosque, Al Jalali Fort, and the Bahla Fort, representing the country's architectural landmarks.
