| Reverse description | The reverse displays a boldly rendered imperial dragon in high relief, depicted in the traditional Vietnamese rồng style, with a scaled and sinuous coiled body filling the field. The dragon's head faces left with an open jaw, flowing mane, and horns rendered in fine detail. One claw grasps a flaming pearl at the base of the design, a classic symbol of imperial power and wisdom. A small seal or mint mark character appears below the pearl near the lower rim. The field is unlettered, with no border beading, allowing the dragon motif to dominate the entire coin surface. |
