| Reverse description | The reverse presents a highly stylized depiction of a serpent coiled in a graceful S-curve, rendered in an ornate traditional Chinese artistic style with finely incised scale and cloud motifs. The snake clasps an ornamental gourd — a traditional symbol of good fortune and prosperity — within its coils, the gourd decorated with intricate relief patterning. Auspicious ruyi clouds in relief fill the background, lending the composition a sense of fluid, celestial movement. To the upper left of the central design, the cyclical calendar characters 乙巳 (denoting the Year of the Snake in the traditional Chinese sexagenary cycle) are inscribed in raised script. The denomination 20000元 appears in the lower portion of the field in bold raised numerals. |
