| Obverse description | Central field features an ornate rectangular frame rendered in high relief, composed of intricately entwined dragon and cloud motifs in traditional Chinese decorative style against a mirror-polished black field. Within the frame, the official Beijing 2008 Summer Olympics emblem — a stylized running figure in red enamel color, known as the 'Chinese Seal, Dancing Beijing' — is displayed prominently, accompanied by the colored Olympic rings and the legend 'Beijing 2008' in Latin script below. The country name 中华人民共和国 (People's Republic of China) is inscribed in Chinese characters along the upper periphery of the broad polished border, with the date 2008 in Arabic numerals at the base. |
