| Reverse description | The reverse features a horizontal composition divided into two registers: the upper register depicts the Temple of Heaven in Beijing rendered in precise architectural relief against a polished field, while the lower register displays a panoramic skyline of Hong Kong's Victoria Harbour with recognisable high-rise buildings and waterfront. A central horizontal banner bearing the Chinese legend '祝贺97香港回归中国' separates the two scenes, commemorating the 1997 handover of Hong Kong to China. |
