| Obverse description | Central field features two highly detailed druk (thunder dragons) rendered in traditional Bhutanese artistic style, flanking a central double vajra (dorje) surmounted by a flaming jewel. The dragons are depicted amid swirling clouds and lotus blossoms, their sinuous bodies entwined around the composition in high relief. The Latin legend KINGDOM OF BHUTAN arcs along the upper periphery, while a Tibetan script inscription appears along the lower periphery within a plain border. |

| Additional information |
Bhutan's lunar series issues are produced under the Royal Monetary Authority but targeted almost entirely at the international collector market — they see no meaningful domestic circulation. The 2023 rabbit issue follows a now well-established pattern of small-mintage commemoratives that the RMA has used since the 1990s to generate foreign exchange revenue, a pragmatic funding mechanism for a kingdom with a GDP heavily dependent on hydroelectric exports to India.
