| Obverse description | Central design features the Shah dynasty trident (trishul) enclosed within a raised circular cartouche at the center of a square panel, the square itself subdivided into compartments bearing the royal name and titles of King Birendra Bir Bikram Shah Dev in Devanagari script. The royal honorific 'Shree Shree Shree' appears at the top of the field, outside the square. Auspicious symbols of the Nepalese royal tradition — including conch shells, a fly-whisk, a hand, and other regalia — are depicted in the surrounding fields between the square and the beaded border. The Bikram Sambat date (2030) appears at the base of the square panel. |

| Reverse description | Central field depicts the Nepalese khukuri (curved dagger) erect, flanked symmetrically on either side by floral garlands descending from above, all contained within a raised inner circle. The denomination 'Pachis Paisa' (25 Paisa) is inscribed in Devanagari script below the dagger, with 'Nepal' beneath it within the circle. The surrounding outer band is formed by a decorative scalloped or lotus-petal border, with the honorific legend 'Shree Shree Shree Gorkhanath Shree Bhavani' distributed in Devanagari around the segments of the border. The entire design is enclosed by a beaded outer rim. |
