| Reverse description | Central depiction of the Parliament House (Majlis-e-Shoora) in Islamabad, rendered in fine detail with its distinctive dome and symmetrical facade. The numeral '5' appears to the left of the Urdu word 'روپیہ' (Rupee), together forming the denomination legend '5 روپیہ' positioned along the lower portion of the field. The overall composition is clean and formal, consistent with a pattern or proof-style presentation piece. |

| Additional information |
Pakistan's decimal coinage has seen numerous pattern submissions that never advanced to circulation, and the 5 Rupee denomination in the early 2000s was particularly contested — the State Bank cycled through multiple alloy and size configurations before settling on production specifications. Whether this specific copper-nickel pattern represents an internal trial or a formal mint submission is not firmly established in published records, and surviving examples outside institutional holdings are genuinely uncommon.
