Reverse description The reverse depicts a ewe and her lamb standing in a naturalistic composition, rendered in high relief with fine detail on the fleece and musculature. The lamb stands beside and slightly behind the ewe, suggesting a tender maternal scene characteristic of Chinese Lunar New Year coinage. To the right of the animals, the auspicious inscription '癸未年' (Year of Guiwei) is inscribed vertically in Chinese characters. The denomination '300元' appears in the lower field beneath the figures.
