Obverse description A highly detailed proof-quality depiction of the Great Wall of China dominates the field, rendered in high relief with meticulous engraving showing the wall's battlements, watchtower, and stone courses winding dramatically over rugged mountainous terrain. The perspective draws the eye from the foreground wall sections upward to a prominent watchtower set against a polished mirror field evoking sky. The Chinese legend 中华人民共和国 (People's Republic of China) is inscribed in Chinese characters arranged along the upper periphery, with the date 1990 incuse in the lower exergual area, flanked by decorative wall motifs.
