| Reverse description | The reverse presents a boldly rendered ox executed in the traditional Chinese paper-cutting (剪纸) artistic style, serving as the central motif in celebration of the Lunar New Year of the Ox. Above the ox, a decorative palace lantern and stylised grain ears are depicted, evoking themes of prosperity and abundance. To the left of the central design, the Chinese cyclical year name '辛丑' (Xin Chou), corresponding to the year 2021 in the traditional Chinese calendar, is inscribed vertically. The overall composition is rich in folk-art symbolism and rendered with intricate linear detail characteristic of Chinese paper-cutting craft. |
