🎯 Global Currency Strength Ranking — OMR

Out of 162 actively traded world currencies tracked against the US Dollar, the Omani Rial (OMR) — the currency used in Masqat, Muscat — currently ranks #3 by per-unit value, making it stronger than 98% of all currencies on this list. A lower rank means fewer units of that currency are needed to buy one US Dollar. Within Asia, OMR ranks #3 of 50 currencies tracked on this site for that continent.

ℹ️ This ranks currencies by face value per unit against the US Dollar — the same measure used in "world's strongest currencies" lists. It reflects historical denomination, not economic size, purchasing power or GDP.

📏 How this number is worked out: OMR currently trades at 0.3847 per US Dollar. Comparing that to all 162 tracked currencies — 2 of them trade at a lower rate (so are stronger than OMR), and 159 trade at a higher rate (so are weaker). That places OMR at rank #3 = 1 + 2 currencies stronger than it.
