Reverse description A lifelike monkey is depicted perched on a branch extending across the central field, rendered in high relief with fine naturalistic detail to its fur and posture. To the right, a large stylized fish is visible in the background, a traditional symbol of abundance and good fortune in Chinese culture. The auspicious cyclical year designation '丙申' (Bingshén) appears in the left field in Chinese seal-script characters, referencing the Year of the Monkey in the Chinese zodiac. The denomination '20000' is inscribed in Arabic numerals along the lower portion of the reverse field.
