| Reverse description | The reverse presents two historic coins in juxtaposition: a round coin with a square central hole derived from the ancient Chinese cash coin tradition, representative of the Qin Dynasty monetary system, and an ancient Roman coin depicted alongside it, illustrating the cultural and commercial connections of early world civilizations. The square design element at center is a direct allusion to the classical Chinese ban liang or similar Qin-era coinage. The denomination and exposition title legend encircles the design in the outer field. |
