The Olympic Centenary (1894-1994)- 100 baisa

In 1994, countries around the world celebrated the centenary of the modern Olympic Movement, marking one hundred years since the founding of the International Olympic Committee in 1894. The anniversary honored the vision of Baron Pierre de Coubertin, whose efforts led to the revival of the Olympic Games and promoted the ideals of friendship, fair competition, and international understanding through sport.

Oman's participation in the centenary celebrations reflected the growing importance of sports in national development. Through investment in athletic programs, youth participation, and international competition, the Sultanate joined the global sporting community in recognizing the Olympic Movement's contribution to cultural exchange, peace, and excellence in human achievement.
