| Obverse description | Central square perforation surrounded by four Chinese characters in regular script (kaishu), arranged in cruciform reading order: top to bottom and right to left. The legend 景興重寶 (Cảnh Hưng Trọng Bảo) occupies the four quadrants of the inner field, each character positioned between the central hole and the plain raised rim. The characters are boldly cast in relief with thick strokes characteristic of Vietnamese Lê dynasty cash coinage, set against a flat, unadorned field. |
