3. Omani Rial (1 OMR = 2.60 USD)
Not many people have heard of this country, but now that you know make sure you visit and see the currency with your own eyes.
The Arab state in southwest Asia on the southeast coast of Arabian Peninsula is also called the Sultanate of Oman and their official currency is Omani Rial.
Their official currency is now in our list of the most expensive currencies in the world and if you were to sell/buy one you’ll spend/get around 2.60 USD. Pretty nice deal, isn’t it?
Due its strategically important position at the beginning of the Persian Gulf, its currency exchange rate to the dollar is at the rate of 1 OMR= $2.60 US since 1986.
Because of their relationship (the one between the Dollar and the Omani Rial), Rial’s fate remains tied to the fate of the dollar.
