Reverse description A sinuous five-clawed Chinese imperial dragon is depicted in high relief at centre, shown in dynamic profile with its head facing forward and claws extended, clutching a flaming pearl. The dragon's scaled body coils across the field against a plain background, with stylised clouds and waves rendered beneath. A continuous Latin legend encircles the central device, identifying the issuing province and denomination. The whole is enclosed within a beaded border running along the rim.
