Reverse description A coiled five-clawed Qing imperial dragon is depicted in high relief at the centre of the field, its sinuous body encircling a flaming pearl held between its forelegs, with stylised cloud and wave motifs filling the surrounding field. The dragon's head faces forward with prominent horns, scaled body, and detailed claw work rendered in the conventional late Qing engraving style. The upper peripheral legend reads CHE-KIANG PROVINCE, while the lower legend reads 7.2 CANDAREENS, both separated by small rosette stops. The legends are incuse-struck in Latin capitals within the denticled border.
