| Obverse description | The national emblem of Bangladesh occupies the central field, depicting a water lily (shapla) framed on either side by upright rice sheaves. Above the lily, a trefoil of tea leaves is flanked by four five-pointed stars, symbolising the four founding principles enshrined in the 1972 constitution: nationalism, secularism, socialism, and democracy. The emblem is rendered in low relief against a plain field. |
