Obverse description Cast zinc cash coin featuring a central square perforation surrounded by a plain raised inner rim. The four-character reign legend 治平通寶 (Trị Bình Thông Bảo) is arranged in the traditional cruciform reading order — top, bottom, right, left — in regular script (kaishu), with each character occupying one quadrant around the square hole. The characters are rendered in shallow relief with somewhat crude, irregular casting typical of rebel-issue emergency coinage. A crescent mark, the variety-defining detail, appears within the field. The outer rim is plain and slightly raised.

Reverse description Plain reverse field with a central square perforation bordered by a raised inner rim, entirely devoid of inscription or decorative device. The surface shows irregular casting texture consistent with a crude zinc alloy strike produced under the exigent conditions of the Lê Văn Khôi rebellion. The outer raised rim is narrow and uneven. No mint marks or secondary legends are present.
