| Obverse description | At center, the national emblem of the People's Republic of China — comprising Tiananmen Gate surmounted by five stars and encircled by a wreath of grain ears tied with a ribbon — is rendered in high relief against a burnished field. Radiating lines extend outward from behind the emblem toward the rim, lending a sunburst effect to the composition. Below and to the left, the five interlocked Olympic rings appear alongside a small square device bearing the Chinese national flag. The Chinese legend 中国奥林匹克委员会 (Chinese Olympic Committee) runs in a horizontal band across the lower field, with the denomination 1元 inscribed immediately below. |
