The denomination '5' appears prominently, with 'FIVE RUPEES' in Latin script complemented by the equivalent values in Sinhala (රුපියල් පහ) and Tamil (ஐந்து ரூபாய்). The country name 'SRI LANKA' is inscribed in Latin, Sinhala (ශ්රී ලංකා), and Tamil (இலங்கை), reflecting the island's three official scripts. The overall layout is arranged concentrically within the decagonal flan. |
