| Obverse description | The Arms of Ceylon occupy the central field, featuring the Sinhala lion passant holding a sword in its right forepaw, set within a circular sunburst medallion surmounted by a Dhamma Chakra (dharma wheel). A decorative scroll at the base bears the country name in three scripts: Tamil (இலங்கை) to the left, Sinhala (ලංකා) at centre, and Latin (CEYLON) to the right. The entire composition is enclosed within a finely beaded border with a denticulated outer rim. |
