| Reverse description | Plain, featureless reverse with a central square perforation surrounded by a raised inner rim and a raised outer rim, both well-defined. The field is entirely blank, exhibiting no inscriptions, symbols, or mint marks, as is typical of Northern Song dynasty cash coins of this type. The surface shows a heavily encrusted dark brown and black patina with visible casting pits, consistent with prolonged burial or circulation wear. |
