| Reverse description | Central field features a finely detailed depiction of Guanyin (Avalokitesvara), the Bodhisattva of Compassion, shown in a frontal three-quarter pose with an elaborate crown and flowing robes richly decorated with ornamental detail. The deity holds a ritual object in one raised hand in a gesture of blessing, with additional iconographic elements rendered in intricate relief against the burnished gold field. Decorative foliate and floral motifs frame the figure on either side. The denomination 100元 appears to the upper left of the figure, with the inscription 普陀山 (Mount Putuo) positioned in the lower field. |
