| Obverse description | Central device depicts a mythical serpentine creature (Naga or sea-dragon) rendered in high relief, its scaled body coiling across the field with an elaborate feathered tail. A royal Cambodian yantra or sacred monogram appears above the creature within the inner circle. Surrounding the central motif is a circular legend in Khmer script, with decorative dot-and-line ornaments separating the inscription segments around the periphery. |

| Reverse description | Central design features a detailed frontal elevation of a three-spired Cambodian royal palace or temple (prasat), rendered with pronounced architectural detail including tiered rooflines with naga finials, multi-level towers surmounted by lotus-bud pinnacles, and decorative eave brackets. A royal Khmer monogram or cypher appears prominently at the centre of the facade. Khmer numerals at the base of the structure likely denote the date, and the entire composition fills the field to the rim without a surrounding legend. |
