5 Sri Lankan Rupees (Issued 1991)
The five rupees coin is one of Sri Lanka’s higher circulating denominations, struck in a golden nickel-brass alloy that sets it apart from the lower-value pieces. The example shown carries the date 1991 and is a solid, robust coin with a reeded edge, built for heavy day-to-day use.
On the obverse, the coin displays the national emblem of Sri Lanka: a lion passant holding a sword within a beaded roundel encircled by lotus petals, with the dharmachakra wheel above, rice sheaves to the sides, and the punkalasa pot of abundance below between a sun and a moon.
On the reverse, a bold numeral “5” fills the centre of the field, with the value given as “FIVE RUPEES” in English and in its Sinhala and Tamil forms. The country name “SRI LANKA” curves down the right in English, the Sinhala name arches over the top, and the year “1991” sits at the foot within a beaded border.
