Additional information

The Yi Li / Fu reverse combination places this cash within the brief experimental phase of the Shunzhi reign when the Board of Revenue attempted to standardize provincial output by stamping mint identifiers in both Manchu and Chinese script — a policy introduced in 1653 and largely abandoned by 1657 as administrative consolidation proved unworkable across the empire's dispersed casting facilities. The Fu designation indicates the Fujian provincial mint, one of several regional operations brought under tighter central oversight during this window.
