| Reverse description | A central circular appliqué in full color depicts a portrait of a St. Bernard dog, shown in three-quarter view, wearing a small wooden barrel on a chain around its neck, set against a warm floral background. The legend YEAR OF THE DOG arcs prominently along the upper periphery in raised Latin lettering. The Chinese character 狗 (dog) appears at lower left and lower right, flanking the year 2006 inscribed at the base. The colorized insert contrasts vividly with the matte copper-nickel surround. |
