| Reverse description | A finely detailed depiction of the Archangel Michael, nimbed and winged, shown kneeling triumphantly atop a vanquished dragon whose coiled body writhes beneath him; Michael grasps a long lance in his right hand and bears a shield in his left, driving the weapon downward into the beast. Chinese inscriptions appear vertically in the left field (香港, meaning 'Hong Kong') and right field (天神戰龍, meaning 'Archangel battles the dragon'), referencing the Hong Kong Coin Show for which this special issue was struck. The lower exergue bears the denomination inscriptions FINE GOLD 1 OUNCE and ANGEL. The entire design is enclosed within a rope-style border. |
