| Reverse description | A sinuous five-clawed imperial dragon is depicted in high relief, coiling dynamically across the full field of the coin, its scaled body rendered with fine detail. A flaming pearl is positioned at the centre beneath the dragon's head. Surrounding the dragon, Chinese characters arranged around the periphery read '大清 光緒二十四年 奉天機器局造' (Great Qing, Fengtian Arsenal, Year 24 of Guangxu). The design is enclosed by a beaded border. The composition is characteristic of late Qing provincial dragon dollars, executed in the naturalistic style of the period. |
