| Reverse description | Detailed architectural view of one of the principal ceremonial halls of the Forbidden City (紫禁城), depicted in precise relief showing the grand double-eaved palatial structure set upon a raised terrace, with a central axial pathway receding toward the entrance steps. The commemorative inscription 紫禁城建成600年 (600th Anniversary of the Completion of the Forbidden City) is inscribed along the upper margin, while the denomination 5元 appears in the lower right field. The finely engraved architectural details faithfully render the imperial roofline, columns, and balustrades in the classical Chinese palatial style. |
