| Reverse description | A dynamic full-figure depiction of a fencer in mid-lunge occupies the majority of the reverse field, rendered in finely detailed high relief against a mirror-polished proof background. The athlete, clad in protective fencing attire including mask, jacket, and glove, extends a foil at full reach while maintaining a classical competitive stance. To the lower left, the denomination 5元 is inscribed in Chinese characters, with the Olympic rings symbol appearing to its right. The vertical legend 1988年 is inscribed along the left border, while the commemorative inscription 奥林匹克运动会纪念 (Olympic Games Commemorative) runs vertically along the right border. |
