Reverse description Central field depicts a large rooster standing in left profile with fully detailed plumage, accompanied by a hen and three chicks in the lower right field, all rendered in finely struck relief against a smooth mirror background. The denomination 10 元 appears to the upper right of the composition, while the Chinese cyclical year designation 乙酉 is inscribed to the lower left, identifying the year of the Rooster in the traditional sexagenary cycle. The overall composition reflects a naturalistic artistic style, evoking warmth and familial harmony consistent with Lunar New Year iconography. The scalloped coin border frames the design with an ornate floral relief motif.
