Reverse description The reverse presents a celebrated passage from the Shitai Xiaojing (石台孝经), the stone-carved Classic of Filial Piety commissioned by Tang Emperor Xuanzong (Li Longji), rendered in large, bold regular script characters reading 至德要道 (Perfect Virtue and Important Rule of Conduct) prominently across the central field. To the left, columns of smaller clerical-script text reproduce additional passages from the same inscription, evoking the texture of a stone rubbing. The upper right quadrant bears the inscriptions 中国书法艺术 (Art of Chinese Calligraphy) and 唐·李隆基·石台孝经 identifying the historical source. The denomination 10元 appears at the lower left, while a circular mint seal is visible at the lower right. The overall composition faithfully recreates the visual character of traditional Chinese stone rubbings, with contrasting surface textures achieved through advanced proof minting techniques.
