| Reverse description | The reverse presents a colorfully enameled scene featuring two Peking Opera (京剧) performers in full traditional costume and elaborate headdress. The female figure on the left is attired in an ornate embroidered robe in pastel hues, while the male figure on the right wears a richly decorated yellow and red imperial-style garment with characteristic long pheasant-feather headdress plumes. The legend 京剧艺术 appears vertically along the left field, identifying the subject as Peking Opera art. The denomination 10元 is inscribed to the right, with the coin's high-relief, proof-quality finish accentuating the polychrome enamel work of the figures. |
