| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central device depicts a coiling five-clawed imperial dragon in high relief, facing forward with head turned to the left, surrounded by stylized clouds, flames, and scrollwork filling the field. The dragon grasps or faces a flaming pearl at center, rendered in the characteristic Yunnan provincial style with fine scale detail and dynamic movement. The upper peripheral legend reads YUN-NAN-PROVINCE in Latin characters, while the lower arc bears the denomination 3 MACE AND 6 CANDAREENS, both legends separated from the central device by the reeded border. Small floral or rosette ornaments flank the dragon design at the sides of the field. |

Yunnan Province struck this issue under the authority of the Xuantong Emperor — the child Puyi — during the final convulsions of the Qing dynasty. The provincial mint at Kunming operated with considerable autonomy from Beijing throughout this period, producing silver coinage to local commercial standards rather than any centrally mandated specification. The .800 fineness reflects southern Chinese minting conventions shaped more by regional trade habit than imperial decree.
The dynasty collapsed in 1912. Yunnan would go on to become one of the more turbulent warlord provinces of the Republic era, and provincial silver from this reign rarely saw long circulation.
