Reverse description Central round hole flanked by the denomination '1/2' above and 'CENT' below in bold relief. A stylized dragon rendered in low relief encircles the central hole, its sinuous body and decorative scales evoking the traditional iconography of French Indochina coinage. The curved legend 'INDOCHINE' arcs along the left periphery and 'FRANCAISE' along the right, both inscribed in upright Latin capitals near the rim. The overall composition blends French Republican graphic conventions with Southeast Asian decorative motifs.
