| Reverse description | A fine-relief depiction of a rabbit seated upon rocky ground, alert and facing left, positioned at the centre of the scalloped field against a mirror-polished background. A blossoming plum tree branch extends from stylised rockery in the upper right, with aquatic grass suggested at the lower left, evoking a classical Chinese garden setting. The denomination '100元' appears in the upper left field, while the cyclical year designation '己卯' is inscribed to the right of the rockery, identifying 1999 as the Year of the Rabbit in the Chinese sexagenary cycle. The entire composition is executed in the refined style characteristic of Chinese lunar series proof coinage. |
