| Reverse description | The central field features a highly detailed depiction of a Ming Dynasty treasure ship (baochuan), rendered in three-quarter profile sailing across stylized waves, its multiple battened lug sails fully set and pennants flying from each mast. The hull is decorated with a row of circular port openings along the strake. The legend MING TREASURE SHIP is inscribed within a cartouche-style banner arcing along the upper periphery, while the date 2009 appears in the lower field flanked by small star ornaments. |
