| Reverse description | Central design depicts a dynamic figure of a cross-country skier in full stride, rendered in high relief against a mirror-like proof field. Surrounding the skier is a decorative border of stylized snowflake motifs encircling the composition. The inscription 'LAKE PLACID 1980' appears in the lower portion of the field in Latin letters, referencing the XIII Winter Olympic Games. Additional Chinese characters appear along the upper arc of the border, identifying the event. The overall composition conveys athletic motion within an elegant, geometrically balanced framework. |
