| Reverse description | The central field depicts an aerial panoramic view of the archaeological ruins of the Liangzhu Ancient City, illustrating the ancient urban layout alongside the surrounding peripheral water conservancy system, one of the earliest large-scale hydraulic engineering works in the world. Superimposed in the foreground is a detailed representation of a three-pronged jade ceremonial object (jade cong or fork-shaped implement) unearthed from the Liangzhu site, rendered with fine incised detail. Inscriptions appear in the field identifying the subject, with the face value 10 and denomination characters positioned in the design. The overall composition reflects the scholarly and artistic approach characteristic of Chinese commemorative proof coinage. |
