| Reverse description | Central design features a vividly colored folk-art depiction of a rat rendered in the traditional Chinese paper-cutting style, shown upright and holding a bunch of grapes aloft in one forepaw while clutching a lotus flower in the other. The figure is executed in bright red, green, and yellow applied color against the polished gold field, with a background of incuse lotus and foliate scrollwork framing the composition. The cyclical year designation 庚子 appears in Chinese characters to the lower left of the central motif, while the denomination 50元 is inscribed in larger characters along the lower right of the field. The reverse exemplifies the festive iconography characteristic of the Chinese Lunar New Year commemorative series. |
