| Reverse description | The reverse presents a majestic heavenly dragon rendered in dramatic high relief and fully gold-plated against a deeply recessed black field, designed by Susan Taylor (initials 'SN' visible at lower right). The serpentine dragon, depicted in the tradition of East Asian iconography, coils dynamically across the entire field, its finely scaled body, clawed limbs, flowing whiskers, and open jaws rendered with exceptional sculptural detail. Stylized auspicious clouds in both gold and contrasting black selective plating fill the background, creating a striking chiaroscuro effect. The composition is borderless, maximizing the visual impact of the intricately engraved design across the full diameter of the coin. |
