| 表面の銘文 | 高昌吉利 (Translation: Gao Chang Ji Li — Gaochang / Auspicious profit) |
| 裏面の説明 | Plain, uniface reverse featuring a central square hole with a raised square inner rim and a smooth, unadorned outer rim. The field bears no inscriptions, symbols, or decorative elements, consistent with the uniface cash coinage tradition of the Gaochang Kingdom. The surface displays a natural green patina developed over centuries, with minor casting irregularities visible around the rim. |

The Gaochang Kingdom occupied the Turfan Basin in what is now Xinjiang, functioning as a critical waystation on the Silk Road between the 5th and 7th centuries. Its coinage reflects the kingdom's unusual position — culturally Sinicized, politically semi-independent, and commercially entangled with merchants from Central Asia, Persia, and the Chinese interior simultaneously. Gaochang was absorbed by the Tang dynasty in 640 after a military campaign ordered by Emperor Taizong, ending the kingdom's roughly 140-year run as an autonomous entity.
Surviving examples are rarely found outside Turfan excavation contexts.
