| Obverse description | Nearly frontal bust effigy of Tang Jiyao, military governor of Yunnan, shown in a slightly left-facing three-quarter portrait, wearing an ornately decorated military uniform with elaborate braided collar and epaulettes rendered in fine relief. The bold, individualistic portrait fills the central field with a naturalistic, almost sculptural quality. Chinese ideograms arranged in two vertical columns flank the portrait on both sides, reading as his official military title. The design is contained within a beaded inner border. |

| Reverse description | Central motif features two crossed flags — the Five-Coloured Republic flag and a military banner — with a five-pointed star device positioned above their intersection. A numeral appears below the flags. The entire central design is encircled by a band of Chinese ideograms forming the commemorative legend, all contained within a beaded border. The composition is bold and symmetrical, typical of early Republican-era Chinese commemorative coinage. |
