Obverse description	The National Coat of Arms of Tajikistan is displayed at the upper centre of the field, set within an ornate cartouche rendered in a traditional Central Asian decorative style with vegetal scrollwork. Below the coat of arms, the large numeral '1' dominates the central field. The date '2006' appears in the lower exergue beneath an ornamental floral device.

Reverse description	Two male busts depicted in left-facing profile occupy the central field, rendered in a style inspired by ancient Sogdian and Eastern Iranian mural art. Both figures wear traditional dress adorned with beaded necklaces and earrings, consistent with representations of ancient Tajik nobility as preserved in Bactrian and Sogdian wall paintings. An inner legend across the upper field reads 'ДЕВОРНИГОРАИ ТОҶИКОНИ БОСТОН'. The outer circular legend around the rim references the Year of Aryan Civilisation, with the date '2006' prominently displayed at the base, flanked by two bullet points.
