Reverse description A coiled five-clawed Imperial dragon, rendered in high relief, occupies the central field, its body sinuously curled and facing the viewer with an open-mouthed, horned head positioned at the top. A flaming pearl is clutched beneath the dragon's body at centre. Two five-pointed stars serve as separators within the circumferential English legend, which reads 'SHEN-SI PROVINCE' along the upper arc and '3.6 CANDAREENS' along the lower arc. The entire design is bordered by a continuous reeded rim.
