| Reverse description | The reverse presents a richly detailed composition in the style of traditional Chinese paper-cutting art, depicting a rat as the central motif, incorporating elements drawn from New Year folk paintings. A decorative palace lantern and grape clusters are depicted in the upper portion of the design, symbolizing prosperity and abundance. To the left of the central design appears the cyclical year inscription 庚子, the traditional Chinese sexagenary designation for the year 2020. The overall composition is rendered with fine surface detail characteristic of Chinese commemorative bimetallic coinage, combining folk art tradition with modern minting technique. |
