| Beschrijving voorzijde | The obverse displays a grid-like field divided into nine or more rectangular compartments by raised linear borders, each compartment filled with a distinct Buddhist auspicious symbol rendered in low relief. Motifs include stylised floral rosettes, trefoil or triratna devices, interlaced geometric knot patterns, and crescent forms, all characteristic of Bhutanese hammered coinage iconography. The overall composition is irregular due to the hand-struck nature of the flan, with design elements occasionally partially off-flan at the periphery. No legend or inscription is present; the decoration is entirely symbolic in character. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Bhutan's early machine-struck coinage was produced not domestically but at the Calcutta Mint, reflecting the kingdom's commercial ties to British India rather than any formal monetary agreement. The "Deb" series designations correspond to successive Druk Desi — the secular rulers of Bhutan — though the coins themselves circulated across reigns with little interruption, which is why precise attribution within Period IV remains contested among specialists.
