| Reverse description | A finely detailed relief map of Asia, the Middle East, and Europe fills the field, depicting the overland route of the ancient Silk Road highlighted by a vivid red-colored twisted silk rope that traces the path westward from Chang'an, through Samarkand, to Palmyra — each city labeled on the map with representative architectural landmarks rendered in relief. A circular inset cartouche at upper center depicts a merchant sailing vessel accompanied by two camels, symbolizing the dual land and sea trade routes. The date '2018' appears to the left of center in the field. The legend 'HISTORIC TRADE ROUTES' arcs along the upper border, and 'SILK ROAD' is inscribed along the lower border, both separated from the map by a dotted inner ring. |
