Year of the Mouse
Description:
The reverse presents a lively and detailed scene featuring two realistically colored mice positioned closely together on a textured ground. One rat is shown slightly raised, alert and looking upward, while the other rests nearby, creating a sense of interaction and movement. Their fur is meticulously engraved with fine lines, giving the animals a realistic and tactile appearance. Rounded ears, pointed snouts, long curved tails, and subtle muscle contours are clearly visible. Behind them, softly layered shapes suggest a natural landscape, adding depth without overpowering the central figures. The design is framed by a smooth circular field that enhances contrast between matte and polished surfaces. Also included in the design is the Chinese character for ‘mouse’, the inscription "Year of the Mouse" below, and The Perth Mint P mint mark is above left.
