Reverse description A detailed naturalistic depiction of three rats foraging among tall grass and foliage, rendered in high relief against a proof-quality mirrored field, commemorating the Chinese Lunar Year of the Rat. The central scene is enclosed within a beaded circular border, itself framed by an elaborate ornamental cartouche incorporating stylised floral and scroll motifs. Additional rats in various poses appear in low relief around the cartouche border, enhancing the thematic composition. A Mongolian script inscription appears vertically to the right of centre within the inner field. Decorative architectural elements, including a crown-like finial at the top and a foliate base, complete the reverse design.
