| Obverse description | Cast copper cash coin featuring a central square perforation surrounded by a raised inner rim. Four Chinese characters in regular script (kaishu) are arranged in the traditional reading order — top, bottom, right, left — around the central hole, reading 景興永寶 (Cảnh Hưng Vĩnh Bảo). The characters are rendered in raised relief against a plain field. An outer raised rim encircles the entire design. The coin exhibits the typical flat, unadorned aesthetic of Vietnamese cash coinage of the Lê dynasty period. |
