| Obverse description | The national emblem of the People's Republic of China occupies the central field, depicting Tiananmen Gate surmounted by five stars — one large star above four smaller stars arranged in an arc — all enclosed within a wreath of grain ears tied at the base with a ribbon. The state title 中华人民共和国 (People's Republic of China) is inscribed in Chinese characters in a horizontal legend below the emblem, with the four-digit date of issue centered beneath it near the lower rim. |

| Reverse description | A detailed panoramic view of the Great Wall of China stretches across the central field, rendered in high relief with watchtowers and crenellated battlements winding dramatically over mountainous terrain receding into the background. The composition conveys depth and grandeur through careful layering of the wall's stepped parapets against rugged, rocky hillsides. The denomination legend 壹圆 (One Yuan) is inscribed in bold Chinese characters at the lower center of the field. The design is framed by a reeded border running along the coin's rim. |
