| Beschrijving keerzijde | A sinuous Imperial dragon rendered in high relief occupies the central field, its body coiled around a flaming pearl at centre, with scaly texture and clawed feet depicted in fine detail. Two small floral rosettes appear at the left and right of the inner field. The design is enclosed within a dotted inner circle, beyond which the English legend 'KIANG-SOO' arcs across the top and 'FIVE CASH' arcs along the bottom, all within a reeded outer border. |

Kiangsu Province's 1906 pattern coinage emerged from the Qing court's broader effort to rationalize China's chaotic multi-mint system, a project that ultimately failed to produce uniformity before the dynasty collapsed six years later. Patterns like this one were submitted for central approval but rarely advanced to full production — the provincial mints guarded their autonomy fiercely, and Beijing's oversight remained largely nominal.
The Y#161.1 attribution places this within a small group of brass trial pieces distinct from the copper circulation strikes. Brass was atypical for this denomination and almost certainly chosen to differentiate pattern submissions from working coinage during the evaluation process.
