| Reverse description | The reverse bears two Manchu script characters flanking the central square perforation, reading 'Boo-jyi' (ᠪᠣᠣ ᡷᡳ), identifying the issuing Baoji Mint. The Manchu legend is disposed horizontally, one character to the left and one to the right of the square hole, following the standard convention for Qing cash coins. The field is largely plain, bounded by raised inner and outer rims. The surface is heavily encrusted and patinated in grey-brown tones, with visible brass substrate in areas of wear, consistent with a cast coin of this period. |
