| Reverse description | Central device depicts a coiled Chinese imperial dragon in high relief, rendered in the classic Qing dynasty style with a frontal-facing head, prominent horns, open jaws, and a scaled sinuous body encircling a flaming pearl at the lower center. The dragon's claws and flame-tipped tail extend dynamically across the field. The outer legend KIANG NAN PROVINCE arcs across the upper half in Latin capital letters, while 7.2 CANDAREENS appears along the lower arc, both separated from the central device by a beaded inner border. Two small floral rosettes flank the lower legend at the left and right. The coin is enclosed within a dentilated outer rim consistent with milled coinage of the period. |
