| Reverse description | Plain reverse displaying a central square perforation enclosed by a raised square boss rim, with a broad, flat, unadorned field between the inner and outer rims. No inscriptions, symbols, or mint marks are present on the reverse. The surface exhibits a mottled patina of golden bronze interspersed with areas of green verdigris and dark oxidation, consistent with the coin's age and cast production. The outer rim is slightly irregular, reflecting the hand-finished nature of Northern Song casting techniques. |
