Reverse description A highly detailed, multi-latent color facing bust of Lord Buddha, rendered in a devotional style, with a diamond insert set into the forehead to represent the urna, a sacred mark of enlightenment. The Chinese inscription 'Fo Guang Pu Zhao' (佛光普照), meaning 'The Light of Buddha Shines Everywhere', appears prominently within the design, accompanied by a Latin legend identifying the subject. The intricate colorization and optical latent image technique lend the coin an exceptional artistic and devotional character.
