| Reverse description | A powerful tiger, rendered in high relief, is depicted in a prowling stance atop a rocky outcrop at centre, its mouth open in a roar and its striped coat finely detailed. A second tiger cub is partially visible at the lower foreground. The dark mirror-polished field evokes a nocturnal atmosphere, with faint lunar orbs visible in the background. Chinese characters for 'tiger' (虎) are repeated across the upper field, and a vertical cartouche bearing the Chinese characters '寅虎' — denoting the Year of the Tiger — appears in the upper right. The overall composition reflects traditional East Asian artistic conventions applied to a Western fan-shaped (annular sector) flan. |
