| Reverse description | Central motif featuring a highly stylized lotus flower in full bloom, depicted in high relief with layered petals radiating outward from a prominent central seed pod; the stem is rendered with a decorative knot at its base, symbolizing good fortune and unity. The dates '1999-2009' are inscribed in the lower exergue, commemorating the ten-year anniversary of the handover. A bilingual commemorative legend curves along the upper border, with Portuguese text reading '10º Aniversário do Regresso de Macau à Pátria' and Chinese characters conveying the same meaning along the left rim. |
