| Reverse description | The reverse features a high-relief collage of embossed facsimiles of Chinese zodiac postage stamps bearing the legend 中国人民邮政, arranged across the entire field. The centrally placed, larger stamp panel depicts a monkey in fine relief, while surrounding stamp-like panels each portray one of the twelve zodiac animals — including the rabbit, dragon, tiger, snake, horse, goat, rooster, rat, ox, dog, and pig — replicating the appearance of perforated postage stamps with denomination numerals and inscriptions visible throughout. |
