| Obverse description | Central square cartouche occupies the majority of the field, containing a raised circular medallion at its centre depicting a trident (trishula) above a conch shell (shankha), both sacred Hindu symbols associated with the royal house of Nepal. Devanagari inscriptions fill the four quadrants of the cartouche, rendering the royal name and titles of King Tribhuvan Bir Bikram Shah Dev. Above the cartouche, the honorific legend 'Shri Shri' appears in the upper field, while the Vikrama Samvat regnal date in Devanagari numerals is placed in the lower field. The entire design is enclosed within a continuous beaded border, lending a formal, ceremonial character to the composition. |
