| Reverse description | Central motif depicts a coiled Chinese dragon in high relief, its scaly body curling within a beaded inner circle, with a five-pointed star at the dragon's center. The dragon's head faces right with open jaws, claws extended, and a flaming pearl beneath. Above the inner circle, Chinese characters (什客, meaning Kashgar) appear at the upper left, with additional Chinese legend at upper right. To the left and right of the inner circle, five-pointed stars serve as decorative punctuation. Arabic inscriptions below and flanking the inner circle read the mint name (Kashgar), the denomination (5 Mithqal), and the Hijri date, with the date varying by year of issue. |
