The animal figure is surrounded by an annular border bearing the twelve Chinese zodiac signs in Chinese characters, arranged at regular intervals around the circumference. The Latin legend YEAR OF THE PIG appears along the lower portion of the border. The entire reverse is boldly colorized in blue and orange-yellow, characteristic of this fantasy issue. |

| Additional information |
Jammu and Kashmir has never issued its own coinage — it has been an administrative division of India since 1949, with no monetary authority of its own. This piece is a modern fantasy strike with no historical basis, produced for the novelty and collector market. The "Pig" designation refers to the Chinese zodiac attribution, a framing device commonly used by private mints to generate annual series revenue.
