| Beschrijving voorzijde | The Lion Capital of Ashoka, India's national emblem, is depicted centrally in high relief, showing three lions atop an abacus adorned with a horse, Dharma Chakra (wheel), and bull in relief. Below the emblem appears the national motto in Devanagari script 'सत्यमेव जयते' (Satyameva Jayate, meaning 'Truth alone triumphs'). The denomination '100' is prominently displayed in the lower field, flanked by the word 'RUPEES' in Latin script to the right and 'रूपये' in Devanagari to the left. The peripheral legend reads 'भारत' (Bharat) on the left and 'INDIA' on the right, arcing along the rim. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
India struck this commemorative specifically for the Delhi Commonwealth Games, the country's largest peacetime logistical undertaking to that point — an event plagued by construction delays, corruption scandals, and a dengue outbreak that threatened foreign team withdrawals just weeks before the opening ceremony. The Games proceeded, but the surrounding controversy made this a politically charged issue at the time of release.
The .500 fineness is notably low for a silver commemorative of this denomination, a cost-containment decision that places it closer to cupro-nickel-equivalent silver than to the .925 standard used in India's earlier prestige issues.
