| Obverse description | A snow lion passant left is depicted in the central field before a stylized representation of Mount Kailash, with a crescent moon and sun rising above the mountain in the upper field. The design is enclosed by a circular legend in Tibetan script, forming a continuous border around the central device. The rendering is characteristic of Tibetan coinage iconography, combining sacred Buddhist and national symbols within a traditional compositional framework. |
