Reverse description Central field features a circular longevity (壽) symbol rendered in seal script within a round medallion, surrounded by radiating lines emanating outward in all directions. The radiating design is enclosed by a decorative border of traditional Chinese interlocking fret (meander) pattern, with a beaded inner ring separating it from the central sunburst motif. The overall composition evokes the shape of Taiwan's territory in the negative space of the radiating field.
