Reverse description The reverse depicts a polychrome colorized scene from the classic Chinese novel 'Outlaws of the Marsh' (水浒传), illustrating the episode in which Zhang Shun captures Zheng Biao alive (张顺活捉郑彪). Two figures are shown in dynamic confrontation — one grasping the other — rendered in a traditional Chinese painting style with flowing drapery and animated posture. A vertical Chinese inscription identifying the scene appears along the left margin, while the denomination 50元 is inscribed in the lower right field. The rectangular planchet is framed by a decorative border consistent with the obverse.
