Obverse description A coiled Chinese imperial dragon in high relief dominates the central field, facing forward with claws extended and surrounded by stylized clouds and flames. Two floral rosettes flank the dragon at the sides. The circular legend reads the denomination and province name, separated by a beaded inner border and an outer milled rim.

Reverse description The central field bears four large Chinese characters reading 光緒元寶 (Guangxu Yuanbao) arranged around a small Manchu script inscription at center, all within a beaded circle. The outer legend in Chinese characters gives the provincial mint and denomination, with two rosette ornaments flanking at left and right. The design references the standard Guangxu-era silver dollar coinage of Sichuan province.
