Reverse description A highly detailed rendering of the Asian Arowana (Golden Dragon Fish) dominates the field, depicted leaping dynamically from a stylised aquatic setting adorned with a lotus flower and lily pad. To the upper left, a gilt oval cartouche bears the Chinese character '福' (good fortune). To the right, the Chinese characters '金龍魚' (Golden Dragon Fish) are arranged vertically. The inscription '925 FINE SILVER' runs along the left edge, while the denomination '15,000 Kip' and the legend 'GOLDEN DRAGON FISH' are inscribed along the lower periphery in Latin capitals. A border of raised dots encircles the entire design.
