| Reverse description | Cast reverse displaying two Chinese ideograms positioned symmetrically to the left and right of the central square hole. The character 西 (Tây, meaning 'West') appears to the right of the aperture and 山 (Sơn, meaning 'Mountain') to the left, together reading 西山 (Sơn Tây), identifying the province of Sơn Tây where this cash coin was minted or intended to circulate. The characters are rendered in regular script with clear strokes, and the plain rim is consistent with the obverse. The field is otherwise unadorned. |
