| Obverse description | Three large Chinese characters reading 銀壹分 (Silver One Bu) are inscribed vertically in the center of the rectangular field, rendered in a bold cursive (grass script) style with the uppermost character 銀 in more regular script. The field displays a finely striated hammered surface with a warm golden wash. The entire design is framed by a continuous border of raised pellets running along all four sides of the planchet, serving as the sole decorative framing element. |

| Reverse description | The reverse presents a largely plain, unadorned field with a rough, hammered silver surface showing natural casting and finishing marks. A single small eight-petalled flower stamp is applied at the center of the field, serving as a purity or issuer's authentication mark. The petals are rendered as elongated oval lobes radiating symmetrically from a central point. No border, legend, or additional design elements are present. |
