| Reverse description | The reverse depicts a galloping horse in high relief, moving dynamically to the right across a textured ground suggestive of open terrain, with stylised rocky outcroppings and decorative auspicious clouds rendered in the background. The Chinese character '馬' (horse) is prominently displayed within a rectangular cartouche at the top centre of the field. The inscription 'Year of the Horse' curves along the lower exergue, and the Perth Mint 'P' mintmark appears to the left of the central design. The overall composition reflects the Lunar Series II artistic tradition, combining Western relief techniques with Chinese cultural iconography. |
