Reverse description Central scene depicting a traditional Chinese ceremonial gateway (paifang or palace gate) with a prominent tiled roof, flanked by a large tree to the left, and a group of robed figures ascending the steps toward the entrance, evoking the inauguration ceremony. The architectural scene is set within a beaded inner circle. A surrounding outer legend in Chinese characters reads along the upper arc, with two-character inscriptions 仁壽 (Renshou) and 同登 (Tongdeng) positioned in the left field within the inner circle. The reverse is bounded by an outer beaded border consistent with the obverse, and the composition conveys a formal commemorative character appropriate to the occasion of a presidential inauguration.
