Reverse description Central device depicts a sinuous Imperial dragon coiling around a prominent raised central pearl or flaming jewel, rendered in high relief with detailed scales, claws, and whiskers. The dragon's head faces forward at the top of the design, with the body curling symmetrically to either side and the tail descending below, all set against a plain field with no surrounding legend or inscription. The overall composition is characteristic of late Qing machine-struck copper cash issues, with the dragon motif serving as the principal emblem of Imperial authority.
