| Obverse description | The central field features the Coat of Arms of Ceylon, depicting a lion passant holding a sword, set within a circular wreath of lotus petals and surmounted by a royal crown. A scroll at the base bears the country name in three scripts: Tamil (இலங்கை), Sinhala (ලංකා), and English (CEYLON). The design is enclosed within a beaded border running along the coin's rim. |
