| Reverse description | A stylised dog rendered in profile stands alertly at centre, facing left with its curled tail raised, set against a background field densely filled with the repeated Chinese character '戌' (the eleventh Earthly Branch, representing the Dog in the Chinese zodiac). The cyclical year designation '丙戌' appears prominently in the upper left of the field. The denomination '$5' is inscribed above the dog's back, while the legend '1/4 TROY OZ 999.9 FINE GOLD' arcs along the upper right border, attesting to the coin's precious metal content. |
