| Reverse description | At the centre, a circular medallion contains the date 1937 flanked by the denomination inscriptions in English, Hindi, and Urdu (Yek Rupya), with the legends arranged to divide around the date. Surrounding the central circle is an ornamental wreath composed of roses, thistles, shamrock leaves, and lotus flowers, symbolising the constituent nations of the British Empire and India. The reverse legend ONE RUPEE INDIA and the Urdu equivalent یک روپیہ appear within and around the central design. The overall composition is finely detailed and reflects the ceremonial character of a pattern issue. |
