| Reverse description | The reverse presents a detailed depiction of the Marco Polo Bridge (Lugou Bridge) in Beijing, rendered in high relief with its characteristic stone balustrade lined with carved lion statues receding into the middle ground. In the left foreground, a monumental guardian lion sculpture on a decorative plinth dominates the composition. Above the bridge scene, a dramatic vignette in the upper field portrays Chinese soldiers advancing in battle amid stylized clouds, evoking the spirit of wartime resistance. The denomination '10 元' appears in the central field to the right of the bridge, and the inscription '北京 芦沟桥' (Marco Polo Bridge, Beijing) is placed in the lower right field. The curved legend '中国抗日战争胜利五十周年纪念' (Commemorating the 50th Anniversary of the Victory of China's War of Resistance Against Japan) arcs along the upper border. |
