| Reverse description | Two stylised druk (thunder dragons) face one another at centre, depicted in an intricate traditional Bhutanese artistic style with detailed scaled bodies, clawed feet, and ornate crests, their tails intertwining below. The denomination '25' appears in large numerals at the lower right, flanked by the legend CHETRUMS in Latin script. A Dzongkha inscription occupies the lower left field. The overall design is characteristic of the decorative iconography associated with Bhutanese royal coinage of the 1970s. |
