| Reverse description | The reverse presents a vividly colored depiction of a Chinese dragon rendered in the traditional folk-art paper-cut style, occupying the central field in polychrome applied color — predominantly red, green, yellow, and blue. The dragon is shown in a dynamic, sinuous pose with elaborate scaled body, clawed feet, and swirling cloud embellishments, executed in a highly decorative manner evoking the Lunar New Year artistic tradition. The surrounding gold field features a subtle circular swirl pattern in the background. The denomination inscription 50元 appears in relief at the upper portion of the reverse field, framed within the overall circular composition. |
