The engravings include the nominal value of 500 Yuan and the fine weight and purity of “30 g Au .999”. The coin edge is reeded and slightly raised, which protects the motif from damage.
The reverse side shows the Temple of Heaven in Beijing. The Temple was constructed between 1406 and 1420 and visited by Emperors of the Ming and Qing dynasties for ceremonies of prayer for a good harvest. The Temple of Heaven is regarded as one of the most important and famous landmarks in China.
On the reverse side, the Inscriptions around the top outer edge are the country of origin in Chinese characters and translates as “PEOPLE’S REPUBLIC OF CHINA”. The year of issue “2019” is on the bottom.
