| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central square hole flanked on the left and right by two Manchu script characters reading 'Boo Ging' (ᠪᠣᠣ ᡬᡳᠩ), identifying the Board of Revenue Mint in Beijing. The Manchu inscription is cast in moderate relief within a plain field bounded by a raised outer rim. The upper and lower areas of the reverse are left blank, as is conventional for Qing cash coinage of this type. The casting quality is consistent with late nineteenth-century Board of Revenue issues. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Board of Revenue Mint in Beijing was one of two central imperial mints operating under direct Qing government control, distinguished from the dozens of provincial mints by its role supplying cash coins for official government disbursements. By the 1890s, cash coin production across China was in steep decline — modern machine-struck copper coins from Guangdong had been circulating since 1889, and the old cast brass cash was already losing the argument on economic grounds. These late Guangxu issues from Boo-ging represent the dying phase of a casting tradition continuous since the Han dynasty.
Hartill 22.1511 is among the more common survivors of this mint's final cast production runs.
