The legend 'भारत' in Devanagari script appears to the left of the emblem and 'INDIA' in Latin script to the right. The entire design is enclosed within a decorative beaded border running along the rim. |

| Reverse description | The numeral '25' is prominently displayed in the center of the field, with the Devanagari legend 'रूपये का चौथा भाग' (meaning 'fourth of a rupee') arched above and 'पच्चीस पैसे' (twenty-five paise) below, all within a beaded border. The date '1964' appears at the bottom of the field beneath the denomination. The composition of the legend specifies the coin's value in traditional fractional terms as well as the decimal denomination, reflecting India's transitional post-decimalization coinage policy. |
