| Reverse description | A coiled five-clawed imperial dragon rendered in high relief occupies the central field, its horned head facing forward with mouth agape, grasping a flaming pearl. The sinuous body is finely detailed with scaled texture and is encircled by stylized cloud and flame motifs. An Arabic legend surrounds the dragon within a beaded inner circle, inscribed in Nasta'liq script and reading the denomination and issuing authority. A continuous beaded border frames the entire reverse design. |
