| Reverse description | The reverse displays a finely detailed stylized dragon in profile, its sinuous body coiling across the field in the Vietnamese imperial manner. To the left of the dragon appears a square-form seal character in relief, likely denoting the denomination or mint authority. The dragon's head faces upward with an open maw and prominent scales, rendered in the flowing, dynamic style characteristic of Nguyễn court art. The border repeats the beaded inner ring and reeded outer rim seen on the obverse. |
