Reverse description A coiled five-clawed Imperial dragon occupies the central field, depicted in high relief with scaled body, flowing whiskers, and a flaming pearl beneath its chest. The dragon's head faces forward, surrounded by stylised clouds and flames rendered in fine detail typical of late Qing provincial dragon dollars. Two rosette ornaments flank the dragon at the sides. The circular English legend surrounding the design reads 'AN-HWEI PROVINCE' at the top and '7 MACE AND 2 CANDAREENS' along the bottom, separated by the rosettes. The entire design is bordered by a beaded rim.
