| Reverse description | The reverse depicts a finely detailed, raised effigy of a Chow Chow dog in profile, standing centrally within a beaded inner border. Surrounding the central motif, a decorative outer border features the twelve animals of the Chinese lunar zodiac rendered in relief at regular intervals, set against a polished proof field. A single Mongolian script character appears at the top of the inner border above the dog. The overall composition is characteristic of the lunar series issued by Mongolia, combining East Asian artistic traditions with high-relief goldsmithing. |
