| Reverse description | A full-bodied ox (Bos taurus) rendered in a striking geometric mosaic style stands facing left at centre, its segmented form composed of interlocking polyhedral facets that contrast with the textured leaf-patterned background. An octagonal cartouche at the top of the field contains the Chinese character 牛 (ox). The legend LUNAR OUNCE curves along the left periphery and 2021 along the upper right, while 1oz FINE GOLD 999 arcs along the lower right border. A rectangular cartouche in the lower field bears the inscription YEAR OF THE OX. |

Rwanda has issued a consistent run of Chinese lunar calendar coins despite having no cultural or historical connection to the tradition — the series is produced entirely for the international bullion and collector market, with the National Bank of Rwanda lending its issuing authority to coins that will never see domestic circulation.
