| Reverse description | The central field, enclosed within a beaded inner circle, depicts a left-facing vintage automobile — commonly identified as a 1920s motor car — shown in profile view, rendered in fine relief. Beneath the automobile, a bed of tall grass or reeds is depicted, a motif associated with the Kweichow landscape. The surrounding legend in Chinese characters reads 貴州省政府造 (Made by the Government of Kweichow Province) along the upper arc. At the lower portion of the coin, outside the beaded circle, the denomination 七錢二分 (7 Mace and 2 Candareens) is inscribed, flanked by two small rosette ornaments. |
