| Obverse description | Central device depicts the royal crown of Nepal, surrounded by a beaded border. The legend in Devanagari script reads 'Shree 5 Virendra Veer Vikram Shahdev' (King Birendra Bir Bikram Shah Dev), with 'Nepal' and the Bikram Sambat date inscribed below, all arranged within the beaded circle. The design is executed in a clean, formal style typical of Nepalese coinage of the period. |
