At the base of the central device, the United Nations emblem — a world map flanked by olive branches — is prominently displayed. The legend INTERNATIONAL YEAR OF DISABLED PERSONS arcs along the left border in Latin script, while a parallel inscription in Dzongkha script runs along the right border. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The International Year of Disabled Persons was declared by the UN General Assembly for 1981, prompting dozens of governments to issue commemorative coinage. Bhutan's participation was notable — the kingdom had only begun issuing coins for international collectors in the 1970s under Jigme Singye Wangchuck, using commemorative gold programs partly as a means of generating foreign currency revenue.
KM#60 is among the scarcer issues from this program. Mintages for Bhutanese gold commemoratives of this period were typically small and produced at foreign mints under contract, with the Franklin Mint handling several Bhutanese issues around this time.
