| Reverse description | A finely detailed depiction of a monkey perched on a diagonal branch occupies the central field, rendered in high sculptural relief with naturalistic fur texture. A second, larger monkey face is subtly rendered in the background to the right, suggesting depth and familial warmth. The cyclical Chinese era designation 丙申 (Bingshen, the year of the Monkey in the traditional sexagenary cycle) appears in the upper left field in two Chinese characters. The denomination 200元 is inscribed in the lower left portion of the field. The scalloped border echoes the obverse floral design, framing the composition in the classic style of Chinese lunar bullion coinage. |
