| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central device depicts the Bhutanese royal emblem in the form of a double-headed mythical creature — the druk (thunder dragon) rendered as a vessel or vase form with two dragon heads flanking a central stupa finial, all set against a plain field. A continuous circular legend in Dzongkha script (Tibetan) surrounds the central device, running along the entire inner periphery, conveying the regnal cycle date and denomination in the traditional Bhutanese style. The overall design is bold and deeply struck, consistent with the medallic quality of the issue. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The 1970 Bhutanese gold sertum was part of a broader commemorative program issued under Jigme Dorji Wangchuck, the fourth Druk Gyalpo, who had been systematically opening Bhutan to the outside world after decades of near-total isolation. The coins were produced at the Royal Mint in London — Bhutan had no domestic minting capacity at the time — and were intended partly for international collectors rather than domestic circulation.
Jigme Dorji Wangchuck died in July 1972, two years after this issue, making these coins among the last gold pieces authorized under his reign.
