| Reverse description | Central square perforation flanked by two Manchu script characters reading 'Boo-jiyen' (寶津), identifying the Baojin Mint at Tianjin, rendered in raised relief to the left and right of the square hole. A crescent-shaped mark appears above the square hole in the upper field, serving as a mint or batch control symbol distinguishing this variety from related issues. The reverse field is otherwise plain, bounded by a raised outer rim. The sparse, functional design is characteristic of late Qing milled cash coinage produced at the Tianjin mint facilities. |
