Reverse description Central field features a large wreath of tied grain or floral sprays — rendered in bold, sculptural relief — enclosing the denomination inscription in three vertical Chinese characters (貳拾圓, meaning 'Twenty Yuan'). Above the wreath, arranged in an arc, the Chinese legend reads 中華民國八年造 ('Made in Year 8 of the Republic of China'). The entire design is bordered by the same ornate scrolling cloud-and-wave decorative band as the obverse, creating a unified aesthetic across both faces of the coin.
