Beschrijving voorzijde The Indian State Emblem — the Lion Capital of Ashoka — is depicted in high relief at center, showing three lions passant guardant atop an abacus decorated with a Dharma Chakra (wheel) flanked by a bull and a horse. Immediately below the capital, the national motto in Devanagari script reads 'सत्यमेव जयते' (Satyameva Jayate, meaning 'Truth Alone Triumphs'). The denomination '150' in large numerals is inscribed in the lower field, flanked by 'रुपये' in Devanagari to the left and 'RUPEES' in Latin script to the right along the rim. The country name appears in bilingual form, with 'भारत' in Devanagari along the left rim and 'INDIA' in Latin script along the right rim.

Beschrijving keerzijde A finely modelled draped bust of Rabindranath Tagore — Nobel laureate poet, philosopher, and polymath — is rendered facing slightly to the right at center, depicting him in his characteristic elder appearance with flowing hair and a long, full beard. The peripheral legend in Devanagari script along the upper left reads 'रबीन्द्रनाथ टैगोर' and in Latin script along the upper right 'RABINDRANATH TAGORE', separated by small star ornaments. Below the bust, the dates '1861 - 2011' appear in the lower center field, with '150वीं जयंती' in Devanagari to the lower left and '150 BIRTH ANNIVERSARY' in Latin script to the lower right, commemorating the 150th birth anniversary of the subject.

Aanvullende informatie

Issued to mark the 150th birth anniversary of Rabindranath Tagore, who in 1913 became the first non-European to win the Nobel Prize in Literature — awarded for Gitanjali, which he translated into English himself. India's commemorative rupee program rarely ventures into .500 fineness at this weight, making the alloy choice here a minor curiosity against the mint's more typical .999 silver issues of the same period.
