Description
The reverse design of the coin is a combination of both traditional and modern art styles – echoing Bhutan's current modernization policy, where they strike a balance between modernization and staying true to their traditions and roots. Using bold patterns and floral elements, leaves and clouds to design the inquisitive monkey, the mystical qualities of the Kingdom is tastefully reflected. In addition, the limbs of the monkey are accentuated with swirl patterns, to exude vigor and spirit of the inquisitive monkey. Holding a heavenly peach, which symbolizes longevity and abundance, the monkey sits within an auspicious "Ruyi" cloud motif. The obverse design features the Punthang Dechen Phodrang (The Palace of Great Bliss) also known as the Punakha Dzong. Built in 1637, it is the second oldest and second largest dzong in Bhutan. Punakha Dzong is not only well-known for its majestic architecture, but also for its historical and cultural significance. Punakha Dzong is also host to the royal wedding of His Majesty, Jigme Khesar Namgyel Wangchuck and Queen Jetsun Pema, filling this magnificent Dzong with love and blessing. The picturesque image of the Punakha Dzong sits within the artistic motifs of cloud swirls. The clouds surrounding the landmark further highlight Bhutan as the Kingdom in the clouds, the last Shangri-la of the world.
