| Reverse description | A finely detailed coiled imperial Chinese dragon occupies the central field, rendered in high relief with scales, claws, and a flame-encircled pearl beneath its chin, with cloud and scroll motifs filling the surrounding field. The dragon faces forward with head prominent at centre, its sinuous body curling clockwise. A beaded inner border frames the design, and the circumferential Latin legend reads 'SZECHUEN PROVINCE' at the top arc and '3 MACE AND 6 CANDAREENS' along the lower arc, separated by small six-pointed star stops at each side. |
