| Reverse description | Central dharma wheel (dharmachakra) enclosed within a single beaded or linear circle, mirroring the obverse design. Eight Vartula (Ranjana) characters occupy individual petals of a surrounding eight-petalled lotus, arranged symmetrically around the central motif. The composition reflects the coin's designation as a 'Vartula Tangka', named for the distinctive rounded Ranjana script used throughout the design. |
