| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse presents a scholarly composition commemorating the world's earliest cast copper coinage of the 16th century BC. In the upper field, the arc legend 世界最早的铜铸币 公元前16世纪 ('World's earliest cast copper coins, 16th century BC') frames a display of ancient monetary forms, including a cowrie shell, a bi-disc coin, a spade coin (bu), and a knife coin (dao) bearing inscribed characters. The lower field depicts multiple figures engaged in the casting process — stoking a furnace, working with moulds, and sorting finished coins — all rendered in a detailed narrative vignette evocative of traditional Chinese illustration. The denomination 3元 appears to the right in the field. |

This issue is part of a short-lived series the People's Bank of China produced in the early 1990s celebrating ancient Chinese cash coins — a deliberate nod to over two millennia of domestic monetary tradition at a moment when China was aggressively expanding its bullion program for international collectors. The 3 Yuan denomination itself was unusual, sitting outside both the domestic circulation system and the round figures preferred by most bullion markets, which kept mintages modest and collector interest narrowly focused.
