| Obverse description | The central field bears the Coat of Arms of Ceylon, featuring the Sinhala lion passant holding a sword in its right forepaw, set within a sunburst roundel. The shield is surmounted by the Dhamma Chakra and flanked by petals of the blue lotus, the national flower. A decorative scroll at the base carries the country name in Tamil, Sinhala, and Latin scripts. The word TRIAL appears vertically in the right field, identifying this piece as a pattern or trial strike. The entire design is contained within the scalloped border of the flan. |
