| Reverse description | The reverse displays an ornate composition of auspicious birds and flowering branches rendered in vibrant applied colour against the polished gold field, evoking a traditional Chinese decorative style associated with good fortune and marital harmony. The four-character Chinese idiom 永结同心 (Yǒng jié tóng xīn, meaning 'Forever united in heart') is inscribed prominently within the design. The denomination 50元 appears as part of the reverse legend. The coloured enamel work enhances the naturalistic rendering of the birds and blossoms, characteristic of this commemorative series. |

Part of China's long-running Auspicious Culture series, which the People's Bank has issued periodically since the early 2000s to commemorate traditional folk motifs tied to the lunar calendar and ceremonial life. At 3 grams, these are among the smallest gold issues in the modern Chinese commemorative program — a deliberate format for gift-giving rather than investment holding, particularly around Spring Festival.
