Reverse description The reverse presents a finely detailed high-relief scene depicting Mao Zedong standing at the rostrum of Tiananmen Gate on 1 October 1949, reading the proclamation founding the People's Republic of China, with a group of senior officials standing solemnly to his left beneath a large ceremonial flag. The architectural detail of the Gate's balustrade, flagpoles, and surrounding rooftops is rendered with exceptional precision in the right field, while stylised clouds appear in the upper field. Along the lower rim, the denomination 1500元 is prominently inscribed at centre, flanked by the Chinese inscription 合纯金20盎司 成色.999 and the Latin legend 20ozAu, with decorative scrollwork at either side.
