The dragon is depicted facing forward with prominent claws, scaled body, and cloud scrolls filling the surrounding field. An outer English legend curves along the upper periphery naming the issuing province, while the denomination in English is inscribed along the lower arc. A beaded inner border and a plain raised rim frame the entire design. |
