| Obverse description | Central field depicts two rabbits rendered in high relief against a mirror-proof background, set amid stylised grass and rockery motifs in the traditional Chinese artistic manner; a larger rabbit is shown seated upright facing right on the left, while a smaller rabbit faces left on the right, the pair evoking the auspicious symbolism of the Year of the Rabbit. The arc legend 中華民國一〇〇年 (Republic of China Year 100) curves along the upper periphery, with the cyclical heavenly stem and earthly branch characters 辛卯 (Xin Mao) inscribed to the right of the central design. The issuer legend 中央銀行 (Central Bank) appears in the lower field. |

| Additional information |
Taiwan's lunar series coins are issued under the authority of the Central Bank of the Republic of China, an institution that still formally operates under the 1947 constitutional framework of a government claiming mainland jurisdiction — a legal fiction that has shaped every aspect of Taiwanese monetary identity since 1949. The 2011 Rabbit issue falls in the xinmao year of the traditional sexagenary cycle.
KM#589 is a one-year type with no reported die varieties of note.
