FEATURING
front: Coat of arms of the Kingdom of Cambodia surrounded by Khmer text.

The royal coat of arms of the Kingdom of Cambodia is the symbol of the Cambodian monarchy. They have existed in some form close to the one depicted since the establishment of the independent Kingdom of Cambodia in 1953. It is the symbol on the Royal Standard of the reigning monarch of Cambodia.

A light blue shield with an Unalome Sign, the Khmer-Thai Version of the Aum Symbol, on top of the sword is placed on two ceremonial pedestalled plattered bowls (phan) and the laurel wreath superimposed on the Royal Order of Cambodia on the bottom. The shield is placed on the white mantle with golden fringes and the golden decorations on the bottom and was surmounted by the Royal Crown with the shining diamond emanating from the rays of light at the top of the crown. The shield is supported by the two royal animals are the Gajasingha (the lion with an elephant trunk) to the left and the Rajasingha (the royal lion) to the right holding two royal five-tiered umbrellas (one on each side) standing on the blue ribbon with the words: "PREAH CHAU KRONG KAMPUCHEA" (In Khmer for, "RULER OF THE KINGDOM OF CAMBODIA").

back: Bilingual Khmer/French denomination and date surrounded by a decorative wreath.
