| Reverse description | The reverse presents a charming cartoon-style depiction of a plump tiger, rendered in full color with holographic accents, busily engaged in pickling and preserving vegetables — a traditional activity associated with the Minor Snow solar term. The tiger stands beside a large ceramic crock filled with vegetables such as cabbage and radishes, while cured meats hang in the upper right field. The inscription 小雪 (Minor Snow) appears in the upper left, and the denomination 3元 is inscribed in the lower right field in raised relief against the uncolored silver ground. |
