| Reverse description | Central field displays a coiled five-clawed imperial dragon in high relief, rendered in the classical Qing style with scaled body, flowing whiskers, and flaming jewel, set against a plain field. Four large Chinese characters in traditional regular script are positioned in the four quadrants around the dragon, reading right to left and top to bottom: 大清銅幣 (Great Qing Copper Currency). The overall composition is bold and symmetrical, consistent with the standard reverse type adopted for late Qing copper pattern coinage of the Xuantong period. |
