| Beschrijving keerzijde | The watermark window reserved panel occupies the left portion, framed by ornate temple-column borders surmounted by a circular seal. The central and right vignette presents two yaks rendered in fine intaglio engraving, grazing on a high-altitude plain with a dramatic snow-capped mountain range — understood to include Mount Everest — rising in the background. The Royal Arms of Nepal appear in an oval vignette at upper right, and the denomination is expressed in Devanagari, Nepali, and English along the lower margin. |

Nepal Rastra Bank was established in 1956, replacing the earlier Nepal Bank Limited as the sole authority for currency issuance — a function Nepal Bank had held only partially, with Indian currency continuing to circulate freely well into the 1960s. The 5 Rupee denomination sat at a practical everyday level during this series' long print run, which stretched across fifteen years and at least two distinct signature varieties corresponding to different Governors.
Thomas De La Rue's involvement here is unremarkable by regional standards — they printed for most of South and Southeast Asia throughout this period. The watermark remains the primary security feature, modest even by the specifications of its time.
