| Beschrijving voorzijde | Left-facing effigy of King Jigme Singye Wangchuck occupying the central field. The legend appears in two languages — Dzongkha script above and the Latin inscription 'Bhutan' — alongside the date of issue. The portrait is rendered in a plain, unadorned style typical of Bhutanese coinage of the period. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Royal Monetary Authority of Bhutan was itself only established in 1982, meaning coins issued under its name in 1974–75 predate the institution as a functioning central bank — these were struck in anticipation of a formal monetary framework that had not yet been fully codified. Bhutan's currency had long operated alongside Indian rupees, which remained legal tender well into this period, so early RMA-attributed issues circulated in a genuinely bifurcated monetary environment.
Aluminium was the practical choice for low-denomination coinage across developing nations in the 1970s as silver and bronze costs rose sharply. At 1.48 grams, these pieces wore and bent easily in circulation.
