| Reverse description | A winged Imperial dragon with scaled body, clawed feet, and flowing whiskers is depicted in dynamic profile moving to the left across the central field, holding a striated orb in its left forepaw. Large stylised wings are spread above the body, and the sinuous tail curls toward the right. Four Chinese characters appear in an arc above the dragon and four further characters are arranged in a horizontal legend below, all within a beaded border. The design is rendered in high relief against a smooth, lightly mirrored field. |
