| Reverse description | A highly detailed aerial cartographic view of central Beijing is engraved across the entire field, rendered in the distinctive silhouette form of an Imperial Palace watchtower. The Forbidden City complex is prominently delineated at the centre, surrounded by the city's historic hutong grid. The Beihai Lake and the Tongzi River canal system are inlaid in deep blue enamel, providing vivid chromatic contrast against the copper-toned relief. The Chinese characters 北京 (Beijing) are inscribed in bold calligraphic style in the right field. The piece's shaped planchet follows the architectural outline of the watchtower, integrating form and subject matter into a unified numismatic composition. |
