| Reverse description | Central field features a highly detailed proof depiction of an ancient Chinese bronze leopard artifact, shown in three-quarter view crouching on a rectangular base, its surface covered with intricate archaic scroll and geometric inscriptions characteristic of Han dynasty bronze work. The animal is rendered in high relief with exceptional sculptural fidelity to the original archaeological object. The legend 公元前2世紀 (2nd Century BC) arcs across the upper field, and the denomination 5元 appears at the bottom of the field. A beaded border frames the entire design. |
