| Reverse description | Central vignette presents a panoramic view of a steel truss bridge — identifiable as the Hankow (Wuhan) river bridge — spanning a broad waterway with vessels below and a skyline in the background, all rendered in fine intaglio line work. The denomination numeral 100,000 appears in each corner, with guilloche border patterns framing the entire composition.
