| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field features a snow lion passant to the right, depicted with a flowing mane and tail, set within a circular inner border of raised beads or rope-work. Surrounding this central medallion is a wide band of horizontal Tibetan script legend arranged in a decorative interlocking cartouche pattern, reading the Ganden Palace victory inscription. Small dot ornaments appear in the angles between the cartouches on certain varieties. The overall design is bold and deeply struck in the traditional Tibetan decorative style. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central field contains a circular inner medallion with Tibetan script denoting the denomination (one Sho), enclosed within a raised ring. The surrounding annular band carries a horizontal Tibetan legend giving the cycle and year date, separated by dot ornaments on certain varieties. An outer border of raised beads or dotted pellets runs along the rim. The arrangement of dots between the arabesques and the orientation of cycle and year numerals distinguish the several sub-varieties. The composition is concentric and symmetrical, characteristic of Tibetan milled coinage of the early twentieth century. |

The Ganden Phodrang — the theocratic government seated at Drepung Monastery and later the Potala — operated its mint at Dode, outside Lhasa, with a degree of technical inconsistency that produced substantial variation across this type. The horizontal legend designation distinguishes it from the vertical arrangement struck concurrently, and the small-size classification separates it from a physically larger variant issued within the same window. Three catalog references collapse what are effectively die and positional variants into a single production run spanning roughly a decade.
Tibet's monetary autonomy during this period existed in a complicated political space, following the 13th Dalai Lama's return from exile after British-brokered negotiations with China in 1913.
