| Reverse description | The reverse features a finely detailed coiled dragon rendered in high relief at the center, depicted facing forward with scales, claws, and flaming whiskers rendered with characteristic Kirin Mint engraving style. The dragon is surrounded by stylized cloud and wave motifs. The Latin legend KIRIN PROVINCE arcs along the upper periphery, while the denomination legend 7 CANDARINS 2 appears along the lower periphery. Manchu script characters appear to the left and right within the inner border area, flanking the central dragon device. A beaded inner border and raised outer rim complete the design. |
