| Obverse description | Central field depicts the qilin (麒麟), the auspicious Chinese unicorn, rendered in high relief in a dynamic leaping posture above swirling stylized clouds, holding a flaming pearl in its raised tail. The creature displays elaborate dragon-like scales, a maned head with antlers, and hooved legs in full gallop. The circular legend 中华人民共和国 (People's Republic of China) arcs around the upper periphery in Chinese characters. The inscription 麒麟 appears to the left of the figure, and the date 1996 is positioned in the lower exergue. |
