| Reverse description | A highly detailed coiled five-clawed Imperial dragon occupies the central field, rendered in high relief with finely engraved scales, flames, and whiskers. The dragon faces forward with bulging eyes and an open mouth, its sinuous body encircling a flaming pearl at the lower centre. Two six-pointed rosette ornaments flank the dragon at the mid-field. The surrounding legend, separated from the dragon by a plain inner border, reads in Latin script along the upper and lower periphery. The entire design is enclosed within a beaded outer border. |
