Obverse description Bare-headed, draped bust of President Chiang Kai-shek facing left, rendered in high relief with finely detailed portraiture. A curved Chinese legend arcs along the lower periphery of the field, reading from right to left, recording the Republic of China year 55 and the date October 31st. A further commemorative legend in Chinese characters runs vertically along the right border, denoting the President's 80th birthday. The overall design is austere and monumental, befitting a high-denomination pattern issue.
