| Obverse description | Central device depicts the national emblem of Pakistan: a stylized tughra-style Arabic calligraphic inscription surmounted by a crescent and five-pointed star, rendered in high relief against a plain field. The legend in Urdu (Naskh script) reads along the right peripheral arc and the legend in Bengali script arcs along the left, both reading 'Government of Pakistan.' The date appears in Western-Arabic numerals at the base of the design. |

| Reverse description | The large numeral '1' dominates the centre of the field, flanked on either side by two symmetrically arranged stalks of wheat, each bearing a full ear, symbolizing agricultural prosperity. The Urdu legend 'ایک پیسہ' (One Paisa) arcs across the upper field, while the Bengali inscription 'এক পয়সা' curves along the lower rim. The overall design is clean and uncluttered, consistent with the utilitarian style of Pakistan's decimal coinage series. |
