Reverse description The reverse depicts a highly stylised frontal portrait of a rabbit, rendered entirely through a sophisticated technique of raised circular bosses of varying diameters covering the entire field. The muzzle and facial features of the rabbit emerge from the interplay of light and shadow created by the graduated relief of the spherical elements, referencing the Black Water Rabbit of the Chinese zodiac cycle. The composition fills the full coin diameter with no additional legends or inscriptions, allowing the tactile dotwork artistry to serve as the sole decorative element. The contrast between polished and matte surfaces among the bosses produces a three-dimensional optical effect.
