| Reverse description | Central square perforation flanked on the left and right by two Chinese ideograms in traditional regular script (kaishu), reading right to left as 坌宝 (Benbao), meaning 'local treasure' or 'local currency.' The characters are cast in moderate relief on a flat, unadorned field. The reverse is bounded by a plain raised rim consistent with the hand-cast technique characteristic of Bangka Island tin cash coinage. |
