| Obverse description | Central field dominated by a large, boldly incuse Chinese character 富 (wealth), rendered in archaic seal script style within a square cartouche-like form. The character is presented in high relief against a plain, slightly concave field, with no surrounding legend or border inscription. The broad flat rim frames the design with a clean, unadorned profile characteristic of Indochinese trade coinage of the period. |
