| Reverse description | Central square perforation flanked above by two Sino-Vietnamese characters 三壽 (Tam Tho, meaning 'three longevities'), denoting the denomination of 3 tien. The lower half of the field is occupied by a finely detailed landscape vignette in the East Asian artistic tradition, featuring a gnarled pine or prunus tree to the left, stylized rocks and grasses at the base, and a flowering branch with dotted blossoms to the right — all rendered in low relief with considerable artisanal refinement. A plain raised rim borders the composition. |
