All elements are yellow except the main part of the crown which is red and bears in the middle the Omani national emblem in yellow.

 Medals of the Sultanate of Oman (IEPE)
The medal itself is, however, usually descibed even in English as the "Al-Samood Medal"; I have adopted the literal English translation to convey the sense of national endurance which the sultan's original directive sought to capture, and since the phrase "Al-Samood" is totally meaningless to most non-Arabic-speakers.
Awards: Up to 1997, some 492 awards of the medal have been traced (289 to Omanis and 203 to Europeans), while the awards for gallantry number 138 (75 to Omanis and 63 to Europeans).
Despite its character as a "long-service" award, the Special Service Medal (Royal Guard of Oman) ranks as a junior decoration within the order of hierarchy.
