Identification note: Exact SCWPM Pick number and variety depend on detailed subtype data (printer/inset/signature placement). Photos confirm the 1980s Lion Capital/Konark Wheel type but not the precise catalog subtype. | India RBI 20 Rupees with Lion Capital of Ashoka at right, large “20” in lotus, red‑orange color, and Konark Sun Temple wheel reverse matches the Lion Capital 20 Rupees type (1972–1992) listed as Pick 80. The observed governor period (R. N. Malhotra, 1985–1990) fits this type. Exact SCWPM subtype (letter) depends on confirming the governor’s signature style, inset letter, and printer, which are not fully verified from the provided evidence.
