Reverse description Central field features a stylized Khukri or royal emblematic device set within a raised circular cartouche atop a lotus base with scrolling foliate elements, rendered in the traditional Nepalese medallic style. Surrounding the central motif, the ruler's name 'Bir Bikram Shah Dev' is distributed in Devanagari characters across the field in four registers. The reverse is enclosed by the same continuous beaded border as the obverse, presenting a harmonious and symmetrical composition consistent with Nepalese gold Mohar coinage of the early twentieth century.
