| Reverse description | The reverse presents a highly detailed, three-dimensional high-relief depiction of the Taj Mahal in Agra, India, with its iconic central onion dome, flanking chattris, and ornate arched iwan rendered in fine sculptural detail. The architectural facade fills the lower portion of the coin's field, with the structure extending through and framing the central cutout aperture, giving the impression of the monument emerging from within the coin. A decorative dotted inner border frames the rim, and a scroll banner in the lower field bears the legend 'LANDMARKS OF THE WORLD'. The inscriptions 'TAJ MAHAL' and 'AGRA' arc along the upper rim in capital letters. The antiqued finish enhances the architectural relief and shadow depth throughout. |
