| Reverse description | The central field features a boldly sculpted Chinese dragon in high relief, depicted in a coiled, rampant posture with its head facing the viewer, jaws open, and claws extended, its sinuous scaled body filling the majority of the design. The dragon is set against a low-relief landscape ground of stylised rocks, foliage, and bamboo, evoking traditional East Asian artistic conventions. The legend YEAR OF THE DRAGON arcs across the upper field, with the date 2024 to the right, separated by a pellet. The Chinese character 龍 (dragon) appears prominently in the lower centre of the field in a recessed, incuse style for contrast. The engraver's initials WW are visible in small relief to the right of the landscape. |
