| Reverse description | Plain reverse field of cast iron, exhibiting a raised inner rim surrounding the central square perforation and a raised outer rim at the coin's edge. The field is entirely blank and devoid of inscriptions, mint marks, or decorative elements, consistent with standard Northern Song iron cash coinage practice. The surface displays the coarse, pitted texture typical of iron casting, with some corrosion patina accumulated over centuries. |
