| Reverse description | The reverse is executed in fully three-dimensional sculptural form, depicting a stylised rat figure rendered in the round with a gold-plated antique finish. The rotund figure stands upright on its hind legs with forepaws raised to its chest, with large rounded ears prominent at the top. The rat rests upon a flat circular base engraved with a dense pattern of Chinese characters and auspicious symbols in red and gold, evoking traditional Chinese decorative script. The overall sculptural treatment is characteristic of contemporary Chinese Lunar series collector coinage, presenting the rat as a symbol of prosperity and good fortune. |
