| Reverse description | The reverse presents a finely sculpted pastoral scene of two Western-style unicorns — one standing and one reclining — rendered in high relief against a deeply mirrored proof field. A decorative floral spray of roses and foliage occupies the lower field beneath the unicorns. The bilingual legend 中美吉祥物麒麟 (Chinese-American auspicious symbol qilin) arcs along the upper left periphery in Chinese characters, followed by the word UNICORN in Latin script to the upper right. The denomination 500元 is inscribed prominently in the upper right field. |
