| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central device depicts a snow lion facing left within an inner circle, flanked by Tibetan script legends above and below. The snow lion motif is encircled by the Buddhist Eight Auspicious Symbols (Ashtamangala), comprising the white parasol, conch shell, treasure vase, victory banner, dharma wheel, pair of golden fish, endless knot, and lotus flower, arranged symmetrically around the field. The entire design is enclosed within a beaded border. The overall artistic style reflects traditional Tibetan religious iconography rendered in relief. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Tibet's 20 Srang denomination was never formally issued for circulation — the pieces known under this designation are pattern strikes produced during a period when the Lhasa government was actively attempting to modernize its coinage system following increased administrative autonomy after the 1913 declaration of independence from China. The Tibetan mint at Dode lacked consistent mechanical equipment, and striking quality varies dramatically across known examples, not as a generic caveat but because hand-operated dies were repositioned between strikes.
The Y#22 variety distinction matters here. Multiple die pairings exist, and collectors have documented discrepancies in the lotus petal counts that serve as the primary attribution tool among specialists.
