Obverse description Central field features a finely detailed coiled dragon rendered in high relief within a raised circular border, the mythical creature depicted with flowing scales, claws, and tail in the traditional imperial style. The lower portion of the field is decorated with stylized rolling waves in low relief, evoking the classic Chinese motif of the dragon rising from the sea. The legend 中华人民共和国 (People's Republic of China) arcs along the upper periphery in Chinese characters. The date 1997 appears in a recessed cartouche set within the wave decoration at the base of the design.
