Reverse description A boldly rendered imperial five-clawed dragon occupies the central field, depicted in high relief in a coiled posture with its head facing forward and a flaming pearl positioned above. The dragon's scaled body wraps around the field, with stylized cloud and flame motifs flanking the creature, and stylized waves rendered below. Two rosette ornaments appear at the left and right sides of the field, separating the circular English-language legend. The surrounding legend reads 'CHE-KIANG PROVINCE' at the top and '7 MACE AND 2 CANDAREENS' at the bottom, all within a fine beaded border and reeded rim.
