| Beschrijving voorzijde | Within a beaded inner border, a full-length standing figure of the infant Siddhartha Gautama is depicted at centre, shown with a nimbus behind his head, right arm raised with index finger pointing upward, standing upon a lotus flower in the traditional birth scene. A large tree trunk occupies the right background, flanked by foliage and a mountainous landscape. The curved legend in Sinhala script to the left and Tamil script above reads 'BUDDHA JAYANTHI', with the same legend in Latin script to the right. The Buddhist calendar year '2550' appears in the lower field. The outer border is composed of a continuous decorative beaded pattern. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Issued to mark the 2550th anniversary of the Parinirvana of the Buddha — a milestone date calculated from the traditional Theravada reckoning of 543 BCE as the year of his passing — this coin was part of a broader commemorative program coordinated across several Buddhist-majority nations in 2006. Sri Lanka, as a Theravada heartland with an unbroken monastic lineage traceable to the Mahavihara tradition in Anuradhapura, took particular institutional interest in the occasion. The government declared a national celebration lasting the full year.
