Reverse description Central field depicts a large, elaborately detailed Chinese junk under full sail, its multiple masts and billowing sails rendered with fine engraving detail, sailing upon stylized waves. In the background, a cartographic outline map of the world's continents is visible, evoking China's historic maritime voyages and seafaring heritage. The denomination 50元 is inscribed in the upper right portion of the field in Chinese numerals. The design is struck to proof standard with frosted devices set against a deeply mirrored field, and is enclosed by a raised border rim.
