| Reverse description | Central device consists of a large bold numeral '5' set within a raised pentagonal geometric frame, with the denomination legend in Arabic script inscribed below the numeral within the pentagon. The spaces surrounding the pentagon in the field are filled with stylized floral and foliate ornamental motifs at the corners and base, rendered in a traditional decorative style. A fine toothed milled border encircles the entire design. The overall composition is symmetrical and strikes a balance between bold numeric clarity and ornamental detailing. |

Pakistan's brass-plated steel coinage of this period reflects a broader South Asian shift away from cupronickel driven by rising global nickel prices in the late 2000s. The State Bank migrated several denominations to cheaper steel-core compositions across 2015–2016, a cost-reduction program that also affected Indian and Bangladeshi issues around the same years.
