Obverse description The national emblem of Sri Lanka occupies the central field, depicting a golden lion passant holding a sword, set within a circular sun-rayed border atop a traditional Sinhala vase (punkalasa), flanked by petals of the blue lotus and two Bo leaves. A Dhamma Chakra surmounts the design. The trilingual legend 'SRI LANKA' in Latin script appears to the left, with the Sinhala script 'ශ්‍රී ලංකා' at the top and Tamil script 'இலங்கை' to the right along the rim. The date '2017' is inscribed in the lower field beneath the emblem.

The design is framed by a segmented decorative border of alternating raised sections running around the full circumference of the reverse.
