| Reverse description | A finely detailed depiction of a monkey seated upright on a gnarled tree branch, rendered with intricate relief showing the animal's thick, textured fur. Above and to the left hang a heart-shaped peach fruit and foliage from an overhanging branch, symbolizing longevity in Chinese tradition. The Chinese character 猴 (monkey) appears prominently to the left of the central device, with the Perth Mint's P mintmark below it. The legend YEAR OF THE MONKEY curves along the lower portion of the field in a calligraphic script, completing the lunar-themed design. |
