| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse presents a boldly rendered imperial five-clawed dragon in high relief, depicted in a sinuous coiling posture that fills the entire field. The dragon faces right with an open jaw, prominent horns, and detailed scaled body, its tail curling downward toward the lower field. In the lower portion of the field, below the dragon's body, the two Chinese characters 十五 (shí wǔ, meaning 'year 15') are inscribed, denoting the fifteenth year of the Minh Mạng reign era. The entire design is encircled by a finely milled or rope-pattern border consistent with Nguyễn dynasty casting practice. The dragon's vigorous, dynamic treatment reflects the high artistic standards of the imperial Huế mint. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Minh Mạng's reign saw an aggressive program of currency standardization as he consolidated Nguyễn imperial authority over a unified Vietnam — a unification his father Gia Long had only recently achieved by force. The 3 Tiền denomination in silver sat in a carefully structured tariff system, and dated issues from 1833–1834 fall squarely within the period of the Lê Văn Khôi revolt, a major rebellion centered in the south that tied up imperial resources and military attention simultaneously.
Dated Nguyễn silver issues are considerably scarcer than their undated counterparts, the cyclical year inscription adding a layer of specificity that limits survivors to a narrower production window.
