| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central design features a large Buddhist Dharma Wheel (Dharmachakra) rendered in elaborate detail, overlaid with a crossed vajra (thunderbolt or dorje) motif, a traditional Vajrayana Buddhist symbol of indestructibility and power. The central device is enclosed within a raised inner circle. A Tibetan script legend arcs across the upper field. The date '19 66' flanks the central device on either side at mid-field, and the bold Latin inscription 'BHUTAN 3 RUPEES' curves along the lower margin of the coin. |

Bhutan's 1966 coinage program marked the country's first modern machine-struck silver issues, produced to commemorate Jigme Dorji Wangchuck's formal ascension as the third Druk Gyalpo. The coins were struck at the Indian Government Mint in Calcutta — Bhutan having no mint facility of its own — as part of a broader modernization effort that also introduced Bhutan's first paper currency that same decade.
KM#32a is the silver variant of a type also struck in copper-nickel, distinguished by the .925 fineness and substantially heavier planchet.
