| Obverse description | Left-facing portrait bust of King Tribhuvana Bir Bikram in military uniform, wearing an ornate plumed helmet with jewelled decoration and epaulettes visible at the shoulder. The effigy is rendered in high relief with fine detail, centrally positioned within a raised inner border. A circular Devanagari legend surrounds the portrait, reading the king's name and titles, with the inscription 'Nepal' and the Vikrama Samvat date appearing in the lower field. The entire design is framed by an elaborately engraved scalloped outer border. |
