A small, free museum in an Al Fahidi wind-tower house displaying more than 470 rare coins spanning early Islamic dynasties and centuries of regional trade. It's a treat for collectors and history buffs, well presented across themed rooms, and takes about 30 minutes. The main caveat is the limited hours, mornings only from Sunday to Thursday, so plan your visit around them.
