| Reverse description | Two giant pandas (Ailuropoda melanoleuca) are depicted in high relief occupying the central field: a large adult panda faces the viewer in the foreground, its characteristic black-and-white markings rendered with exceptional sculptural detail, while a smaller panda is shown in profile to the right, set against a stylised bamboo background with jagged stalks framing the upper field. The denomination 500元 appears in a recessed rectangular panel at the lower border, and the weight and fineness designation 1oz Au.999 is inscribed along the upper left field in Latin characters. |
