| Obverse description | The obverse features an elaborate central design evoking a traditional Chinese cash coin, centered on the square perforation that passes through the coin. Surrounding the aperture is a richly detailed, symmetrical composition of stylized ruyi cloud scrolls and floral arabesques rendered in high relief against a mirror-proof field. Flanking the central hole are two auspicious decorative motifs reminiscent of classical Chinese architectural ornament. The legend 中华人民共和国 (People's Republic of China) arcs across the upper field in incuse Chinese characters, while the date 2025 appears in the lower exergue. |

| Reverse description | The reverse is dominated by a richly colored depiction of a traditional Chinese gate panel, rendered in gold coloring with a fine crosshatch ground, centered on the square perforation of the coin. Two imposing guardian lion-head door knockers (pushou), each clutching a ring in gilded relief, are symmetrically placed to the left and right of the aperture, symbolizing protection and good fortune. The entire composition is framed by swirling auspicious clouds (祥云) in white and gold applied color, evoking classical Chinese decorative iconography. The legend 瑞气盈门 (Auspicious Atmosphere Fills the Gate) is inscribed in Chinese characters along the upper rim. The denomination 10元 appears in the lower field. |
