Straight
Reported in three-dimensional form the representation of the half-bust of Mohāndās Karamchand Gāndhī, commonly known by the honorific appellation of Mahatma (Porbandar, October 2, 1869 – New Delhi, January 30, 1948), was an Indian politician, philosopher and lawyer. Gandhi was one of the pioneers and theorists of satyagraha, a term coined by himself, that is, resistance to oppression through mass civil disobedience that led India to independence. Through his actions, Gandhi inspired civil rights movements and personalities such as Martin Luther King, Nelson Mandela and Aung San Suu Kyi.

Verso
The reverse bears a depiction of the half-bust Alfred Bernhard Nobel, known for being the inventor of dynamite and the creator and founder of the Nobel Prize.
It commemorates the fact that Gandhi never received the Nobel Peace Prize although he was nominated five times between 1937 and 1948. The omission was publicly regretted by the Nobel Prize committee a decade later. When the Dalai Lama was awarded the prize in 1988, the chairman of the committee said that this award was “in part a tribute to the memory of Mahatma Gandhi.”
