| Reverse description | The reverse presents an expansive composition celebrating Chinese running script (行书, xíngshū) calligraphy, featuring a boldly rendered vertical inscription of running script characters dominating the central field, evoking a classical ink-on-paper aesthetic with naturalistic brushstroke textures struck in frosted relief against the mirrored background. Subsidiary inscriptions in smaller running and regular script appear in vertical columns flanking the central text, referencing classical Chinese poetry and calligraphic traditions. A finely detailed floral spray, likely a peony or similar bloom, is depicted in the lower left field, adding artistic embellishment characteristic of Chinese commemorative coin design. The legend 中国书法艺术 (Chinese Calligraphic Art) and references to notable historical calligraphic schools appear among the secondary inscriptions. The denomination 10元 is inscribed in the lower right field. |
