| Obverse description | The national emblem of the People's Republic of China occupies the central field, depicting Tiananmen Gate surmounted by five stars — one large and four smaller — all within a wreath of ears of grain bound at the base by a cogwheel, rendered in high relief against a mirror-like proof field. The circular Chinese legend 中華人民共和國 (People's Republic of China) arcs around the upper periphery. The date 1993 appears in the exergue below the emblem in Arabic numerals. |

| Reverse description | A naturalistic scene depicting an adult brown bear (Ursus arctos) in a crouching, forward-facing posture atop a rocky outcrop, its cub standing upright to the left, both rendered in finely detailed high relief. A stylized landscape of karst rock formations, cascading water, and cloud motifs occupies the upper field in the manner of traditional Chinese ink painting. The Chinese characters 棕熊 (brown bear) are inscribed to the upper left, and a mint mark appears in the lower right field. The denomination 50元 and the silver purity notation Ag·5oz·999 are inscribed to the right in the field. |
