How can you reference the annotation in the Javadoc?

Question

How can you correctly reference the annotation as a code snippet in the Javadoc?

For example:

<code>
  @Annotation public String field = "";
</code>

@Annotation is treated as an unrecognized Javadoc tag, not a piece of code.

IIRC,

<code>
  &#64;Annotation public String field = "";
</code>

Or, I suppose

{@code 
  @Annotation public String field = "";
}
