Reverse description Central field displays a highly detailed, high-relief effigy of a seated monkey facing left, rendered in a naturalistic style consistent with Chinese Lunar New Year commemorative coinage. The denomination '250' appears in the upper field, with two five-pointed stars flanking it on either side. The word 'PATACAS' is inscribed in bold raised letters along the lower field. To the left, a vertical column of Chinese characters reads the denomination and issuing authority, while the Chinese characters for 'Macao' (澳門) appear to the right. The deeply mirrored proof fields provide strong contrast to the frosted devices.
