Reverse description The reverse depicts a sinuous Imperial Chinese dragon in high relief at centre, facing left with a flaming pearl before it, rendered in the characteristic late Qing dynasty style with detailed scales, claws, and swirling cloud and wave motifs at the base. The English legend 'HU POO' arcs above the dragon, identifying the Board of Revenue as the issuing authority, while '20 CASH' appears in the lower field below the dragon. The coin retains its original milled border on the reverse, and the design elements, though worn, remain identifiable.
