Reverse description Central square hole flanked by two Manchu script characters arranged horizontally in the left and right fields, reading 'Boo-u' (ᠪᠣᠣ ᡠ), the Manchu rendering of the Board of Revenue mint name. The characters are rendered in bold, raised strokes with characteristic Manchu calligraphic forms. The plain field is enclosed by a raised inner rim around the square perforation and a raised outer rim at the coin's periphery, consistent with the struck cash coinage of the late Qing dynasty.
