Reverse description The reverse presents a detailed evocation of the Eastern Han dynasty stele inscription known as the Shichen Bei (史晨碑), one of the masterworks of Han clerical (lishu) script calligraphy. The left field displays densely rendered columns of lishu characters transcribed from the stele, while the right portion features a bold, large-character rendering of the inscription title 興力 in an aged, textured relief suggestive of rubbed stone. A small collector's hall mark or mint cartouche appears at lower right. The inscriptions 中国书法艺术·东汉·史晨碑 (Art of Chinese Calligraphy · Eastern Han · Shichen Stele) and the denomination 100元 are positioned along the lower margin of the reverse field.
