The obverse features two images from Chinese folklore: “Chang-Eh soars to the moon,” and “ the Jade Hare pounds medicine in a mortar on the moon.” Chang-Eh drank an elixir of immortality, soared to the moon, and became the Moon Goddess. She descends to Earth to bestow good fortune on people. The white rabbit with the jade pestle grinds medicine that bestows immortality. |
