Reverse description Central round hole encircled by two symmetrical branches of plum blossoms (mei hua), rendered in naturalistic relief with individually detailed five-petalled flowers and budding stems framing the perforation. Above the hole, a curved legend in six Chinese characters reads 金本位幣貳仙 (Gold Standard currency / 2 Fen [Sin]), arranged in an arc across the upper field. The design is elegant and botanically detailed, the floral motif serving as a quintessential symbol of the Republic of China.
