| Reverse description | The reverse displays a highly stylized geometric diaper or fret pattern, commonly referred to as a Greek key or meander design, filling the entire field in a repeating interlocked motif. This decorative lattice-work pattern, characteristic of Taiwanese Bai Bao tael issues, is enclosed within a plain raised rim. The overall surface treatment is consistent with the cast production technique employed for this series. |
