| Reverse description | A coiled five-clawed imperial dragon is depicted in high relief at the centre of the field, its head facing forward and clutching a flaming pearl beneath its body. The dragon's scales, whiskers, and claws are rendered in fine detail in the Chinese imperial tradition. A beaded inner border frames the design, with a raised Latin legend arranged along the upper and lower periphery reading '25TH YEAR OF KUANG HSU' above and 'PEI YANG' below, separated by raised dot stops. |
