Reverse description The reverse features a highly detailed colorized Peking Opera facial mask (脸谱, liǎnpǔ) representing Zhang Fei, the famous general of the Shu Han kingdom from the Three Kingdoms period. The mask is rendered in bold black, white, and red tones with intricate patterning characteristic of traditional Beijing Opera makeup, conveying the character's fierce and resolute nature. The denomination 10元 appears to the lower left in the field, with the character 张飞 (Zhang Fei) inscribed to the upper left identifying the subject. The design is framed by a decorative border incorporating traditional Chinese ornamental motifs, with a stylized floral element visible in the upper right portion of the field.
