| Obverse description | The obverse bears the Arms of Sri Lanka rendered in high relief at centre: a golden lion passant holding a sword in its right forepaw, set within a circular lotus-petal border, itself enclosed by a wreath of petals. Surmounting the central roundel is the Dhamma Chakra (Wheel of the Law). At the base, a traditional Sinhalese pot of abundance (purna-kalasha) flanked by a crescent moon to the left and a stylised sun to the right, all resting on a stepped plinth. The entire device is presented without a surrounding legend, the scalloped rim with milled notches framing the composition. |
