(Translation: Guangxu (Emperor) / Made in the Year 44 Great Qing's copper currency / Currency worth 10 Cash (Wen))
Reverse description A sinuous Chinese imperial dragon is depicted in profile at the centre of the field, rendered in the characteristic Qing dynasty style with scales, claws, and a flaming pearl before it. A circular Chinese legend reading 'Made in the reign of Guangxu' arcs above the dragon along the upper periphery. Below the dragon, a romanised English legend in Latin characters identifies the issuing authority and denomination. The design follows the standard format established for late Qing machine-struck copper cash coinage, combining traditional Chinese imperial iconography with Western-influenced lettering for international legibility.
