| Obverse description | The obverse depicts a panoramic view of the Yungang Grottoes carved into the cliff face, showing the monumental rock-cut cave temples with their elaborate architectural facades and colonnaded fronts set against the natural sandstone escarpment. A modern multi-storey structure appears at the right edge of the scene, providing contemporary context to the ancient site. The legend '中国石窟艺术·云冈' appears in the upper field above the central motif, while the inscription '中华人民共和国' is prominently engraved along the lower portion of the field, with the date '2010' below it. |
