Reverse description A sinuous Chinese imperial dragon occupies the central field, depicted in high relief facing forward with scaled body coiling across the design, clutching a flaming pearl beneath its forelegs amid stylized clouds and waves. The dragon's head is shown frontally with prominent horns, whiskers, and open mouth, rendered in the characteristic style of Kwangtung Province provincial coinage. The circular Latin legend 'KWANG-TUNG PROVINCE' arcs along the upper periphery, while '7.2 CANDAREENS' appears along the lower periphery, both separated by rosette or decorative stops. The entire reverse is bounded by a toothed or beaded inner border and a reeded rim.
