| Reverse description | The reverse displays the bold numeral '1' in large format at the centre, with the word PICE inscribed beneath it, all set against a background of two crossed wheat ears that frame the central denomination. The legend INDIA appears along the upper periphery in Latin script, flanked on the left by the Hindi inscription एक पैसा in Devanagari script and on the right by the Urdu inscription ایک پیسہ in Nastaliq script. The date 1949 is placed in the lower exergue. The agricultural motif of the wheat ears reflects post-independence India's emphasis on agrarian identity. |
