    Okay, no big thing here, but for fiddy cents I had to have it. The lady said she got it in Japan. The gold-plated dragons are in a cheapo plastic display box, they are different styles, not exactly the same. Can anyone read the Japanese script beneath them? I believe the script on the left says good fortune, stumped on the right. Thanks.

    神龍
    Kami Ryū (Japan)/Shenlong (China) god dragon or imperial dragon. Also a character in Dragonball Z (apparently).
