| Reverse description | A vibrantly colored rooster rendered in a traditional Chinese paper-cut artistic style dominates the central field, applied in red and yellow enamel coloring with decorative floral elements — including chrysanthemums — surrounding it in polychrome. The rooster stands in a proud, upright posture, its plumage stylized in the manner of folk art. The denomination 2000元 appears to the upper right of the design, and the year 2017 is inscribed at the upper left. The entire composition is framed by an intricate relief border of auspicious scrollwork and floral motifs. |
