Reverse description The reverse displays a writhing imperial five-clawed dragon depicted in high relief at the center, shown in dynamic three-quarter facing view with head raised, grasping a flaming pearl below its body. Clouds and stylized flame elements surround the dragon throughout the field. The Latin legend CHING KIANG is arranged around the upper periphery, with individual letters spaced around the rim, and two small rosette ornaments flank the lower portion of the dragon. The rim is edged with a reeded or plain border depending on the variety.
