| Obverse description | Central round hole surrounded by a square frame, with four Chinese characters arranged in the four quadrants reading right to left, top to bottom in traditional regular script (kaishu). The characters 光緒通寶 (Guang Xu Tong Bao) occupy the cardinal positions around the central perforation, meaning 'Guangxu [Emperor] Circulating Currency.' The coin exhibits a milled rim encircling the flat field, and the overall design closely echoes the traditional cash coin format adapted for machine-struck production. |
