| Obverse description | Central field features a snow lion passant facing left, rendered in relief with stylized mane and tail, standing above a decorative floral or cloud motif. The lion is surrounded by an inner border of raised dots arranged in radiating groups. An encircling Tibetan legend occupies the outer field, reading from the scalloped rim inward, with characters distributed across all quadrants of the coin's eight-lobed scalloped flan. |

| Reverse description | Central device consists of three interlocked fish arranged in a triskelion or swirl pattern around a central spiral motif, symbolizing auspiciousness in Tibetan Buddhist iconography. Groups of raised dots are interspersed between the fish, forming a decorative inner border that separates the central design from the surrounding Tibetan legend. The encircling inscription in Tibetan script records the Tibetan calendrical cycle and year, along with the denomination, distributed evenly around the eight-lobed scalloped flan. |
