| Reverse description | Two colored white rabbits are depicted in the central field, one upright and alert in the foreground and a second resting beside it, rendered in delicate polychrome with pink inner ears and black eyes. Behind the rabbits, stylized mountain silhouettes rise in the middle ground, while a spreading pine tree rendered in traditional East Asian fan-motif style fills the upper field, with a bird in flight to the right. The Chinese character 兔 (rabbit) appears to the upper right of the central design, flanked by the inscription YEAR OF THE RABBIT. A Greek-key decorative border frames the entire design, and the legend 1 oz 999 Fine Silver is inscribed along the lower periphery. |
