Reverse descriptionCanadian artist Aries Cheung has created an endearing design of a Rat in its characteristic stance as it explores the field of the coin. Seen from above, the Rat is positioned between lucky waves to the left and auspicious clouds to the right, their swirling contours echoed in the Rat`s fur to bestow good fortune upon this zodiac sign. The Chinese character for“Rat” is engraved above the waves.
