| Obverse description | Central square hole surrounded by four large Chữ Hán (Chinese character) inscriptions arranged in the four cardinal quadrants of the field, reading clockwise from the top-right: 嗣德 (Tự Đức, the reign title), 通寶 (Thông Bảo, meaning 'circulating treasure'), 民賴之 (the people rely upon it), and 飛 (fly/auspicious). The characters are rendered in bold, deeply incuse relief within a plain raised border, in the traditional Vietnamese cash-coin format. |
