| Obverse description | The Lion Capital of Ashoka, the national emblem of India, depicted centrally in high relief, showing three lions passant guardant atop an abacus bearing a Dharma Chakra (wheel) flanked by a bull and a horse in profile. The motto 'सत्यमेव जयते' (Satyameva Jayate, 'Truth Alone Triumphs') appears in Devanagari script immediately below the capital. The country name 'भारत' in Devanagari arcs along the upper left periphery and 'INDIA' in Latin script along the upper right, while the denomination 'रुपया' in Devanagari and '1 RUPEE' in Latin appear in the lower field.

| Reverse description | A dynamic sculptural composition adapted from the Quit India Monument occupies the central field, depicting a group of freedom fighters in vigorous relief: a leading figure raises a flag aloft while other participants surge forward in an attitude of determined protest, evoking the mass civil disobedience movement of 1942. The bilingual legend 'भारत छोडो आंदोलन' in Devanagari and 'QUIT INDIA MOVEMENT' in Latin script arcs around the upper periphery. Below the central design, the commemorative dates '1942-1992' appear at centre, flanked by the Golden Jubilee inscription 'स्वर्ण जयंती' in Devanagari to the left and 'GOLDEN JUBILEE' in Latin to the right along the lower arc. A beaded border frames the entire reverse. |
