Reverse description The reverse displays a finely detailed coiling imperial dragon in high relief at the center, enclosed within a beaded inner circle. The dragon is depicted in the classic Qing style, facing forward with its head turned slightly, clutching a flaming pearl beneath its body, with scaled body, clawed feet, and flowing whiskers rendered in sharp detail. Flame and cloud motifs surround the dragon, filling the inner circle. Two rosette ornaments of pellets appear symmetrically on the left and right sides of the field between the beaded inner circle and the reeded outer edge. The field shows natural toning consistent with the brass composition, and the overall design closely follows the standard Yunnan province dragon coinage type of the late Qing period.
