| Obverse description | Central device featuring a tall, finely detailed date palm tree enclosed within a raised inner circle. The Arabic legend 'حكومة البحرين' (Government of Bahrain) arcs around the upper field outside the inner circle. Below the inner circle, the dual dates '١٩٦٥ - ١٣٨٥' (1965 - 1385) are inscribed in Eastern Arabic numerals, with a dash separating the Hijri and Gregorian years. The overall design is clean and uncluttered, with the palm tree serving as the principal national emblem of Bahrain. |
