| Reverse description | The reverse depicts a highly detailed, naturalistically rendered rat seated atop a decorative block or pedestal, facing left and positioned in the right-centre of the field. To the right, an elaborate stylised phoenix or mythical bird motif rendered in traditional Chinese decorative style occupies the background in high relief. The denomination 20000 is inscribed in the lower left field, accompanied by the Chinese character 元 and the cyclical character 子 (zi, denoting the Year of the Rat) below. The composition masterfully contrasts the realistic portraiture of the rat with the ornate classical Chinese decorative elements. |
