| Obverse description | Central square hole surrounded by a plain raised rim. Four Tangut script characters are arranged in the four cardinal positions around the central perforation, reading the reign title Da'an Baoqian. The characters are rendered in a regular, formal script style typical of Western Xia coinage, cast in relief against a flat field. The inner and outer rims are both raised and well-defined. |
