| Reverse description | A highly detailed, naturalistically rendered serpent coils sinuously across the mirror-polished field, its finely engraved scales rendered with sharp relief and textural precision against the reflective background. Lotus and bamboo foliage, depicted with flowing, stylized lines, frame the upper portion of the composition, complementing the lotus-petal scalloped shape of the coin. In the lower left field, the Chinese character '蛇' (snake) appears incuse, while the engraver's initials 'CRR' are positioned in the lower right field. The overall design by Three Degrees Creative Group Inc. harmoniously integrates Eastern artistic motifs with Western medallic engraving traditions. |
