Reverse description A Himalayan Monal pheasant (Lophophorus impejanus), Nepal's national bird, depicted standing and facing left with its head raised, rendered in fine naturalistic detail showing its distinctive plumage. The bird is set within a scenic Himalayan landscape featuring trees, shrubs, rocky terrain, and mountain peaks in the background. The Devanagari legend arcs across the upper field invoking the deities Gorakshanath and Bhawani, while the denomination 'Pachis Rupaiya' (Twenty-Five Rupees) is inscribed along the lower border.
