| Reverse description | A finely detailed high-relief depiction of a birch tree branch in spring fills the upper portion of the field, with engraved silver leaves, hanging catkins, and the characteristic textured bark of a birch trunk rendered along the left side. Two spring birch leaves crafted from vivid translucent green Bohemian art glass are affixed to the branch as applied insets, their amber-tipped stems and engraved venation rendered with exceptional naturalistic detail. The date 2017 appears incused vertically along the left margin beside the trunk. The word for birch in four languages — 樺木 (Chinese), BIRKE (German), BERŽAS (Lithuanian), and BĒRZI (Latvian) — is inscribed in a horizontal legend along the lower field. |
