Obverse description The Lion Capital of Ashoka, adapted from the ancient pillar at Sarnath, is depicted in the centre of the scalloped field, showing three lions passant guardant atop an abacus bearing a Dharma Chakra (wheel) flanked by a bull and a horse in low relief. The Devanagari legend 'भारत' appears to the left and the Latin legend 'INDIA' to the right, both following the curve of the scalloped border. The design is rendered in a clean, bold relief characteristic of Indian decimal coinage.
