| Obverse lettering | 嘉隆通寶 (Translation: Gia Long Thông Bảo — Gia Long (Emperor) / Universal currency) |
| Reverse description | Cast reverse featuring a central square perforation with a raised square inner rim. Two Chinese characters in seal script (zhuanshu) are positioned horizontally flanking the central hole: 六 (lục, meaning 'six') to the right and 分 (phân, meaning 'phân') to the left, together denoting the weight denomination of 6 phân. The field is flat and largely plain, bounded by a raised circular outer rim. The seal script rendering gives the characters a more archaic and stylized appearance compared to the obverse. |
