| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field features a traditional Nepalese royal tantric yantra design composed of interlocking geometric compartments arranged in a square mandala-like pattern, each cell containing elements of the royal name in Devanagari script. The name of King Gyanendra Bir Bikram Shah Dev is distributed across the compartments, with a central medallion bearing the royal cypher. The Nepali date 2058 appears at the base of the design. The entire motif is framed by a beaded border running along the coin's rim. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Nepal issued this coin in 2001 to mark the 2545th anniversary of the birth of Siddhartha Gautama, born in Lumbini — a site within Nepal's Terai region that had been formally confirmed as the Buddha's birthplace by an Ashokan pillar inscription discovered there in 1896. The denomination itself is unusual; 1500 rupees was not a circulating value but a deliberate commemorative figure chosen to reflect the occasion rather than any practical monetary unit.
Gyanendra had just ascended the throne following the catastrophic royal massacre of June 2001, in which Crown Prince Dipendra killed nine members of the royal family before falling into a coma. Coins bearing his name were struck against that still-raw political backdrop.
