| Reverse description | A highly detailed, domed perspective view of the interior ceiling of the Taj Mahal, rendered in exceptional sculptural relief across the full coin face. The composition presents the ornate geometric and floral lattice-work of the mausoleum's central dome as seen from directly below, with radiating ribbed vaulting, intricate arabesque panels, and a spiralling oculus at the centre. The surrounding field incorporates sections of the characteristic pointed arched niches and decorative pietra dura inlay patterns of the monument's walls. The inscription TAJ MAHAL appears in the upper field, with the date 2020 in the lower field. |
