Sacred Buddhist symbols, large fish-eye type indicates the variety struck in 1955. With 'DRUK' [Bhutan] and "Sa' [Earth].
Bhutan, a country situated between China and India, is known as Druk Yul or the “Land of the Thunder Dragon.” As such, the thunder dragon is a source of pride for the Bhutanese, portrayed on both the national flag and the national emblem. On the Bhutan flag, in particular, the thunder dragon is prominent, divided between an orange-and-yellow background meant to depict equal division between religious and secular power. The dragon itself is meant to represent the purity of the country as a whole — the snarling mouth is a symbol of protection from the gods and the jewels enclosed in the dragon’s claws portray Bhutan’s prosperity and financial security.
