Aluminum 20 Sen coin with a detailed and symbolic design, where the obverse features a ceremonial altar from which rays emanate, evoking religious and traditional elements of the country, surrounded by an inscription in ornamental Khmer script. The reverse combines colonial and local influences, with the French legend and the value in Khmer framed by a finely executed laurel wreath.
