| Aversbeschreibung | Cast iron cash coin with a central square hole, surrounded by four Chinese characters in regular script (kaishu) arranged in the traditional cross pattern, read top-to-bottom and right-to-left. The legend reads 咸豐通寶 (Xianfeng Tongbao), denoting the reign title of the Xianfeng Emperor and the phrase 'circulating treasure.' The characters are rendered in a bold, slightly archaic style typical of mid-Qing imperial cast coinage, set within a plain raised rim. The field between the characters and the outer rim is flat and undecorated. |

The iron cash issues of the Xianfeng period were emergency coinage, not routine production. By the early 1850s the Qing treasury was under catastrophic pressure — the Taiping Rebellion had severed southern revenue streams, and the Board of Revenue Mint resorted to iron as copper supplies tightened. Iron cash circulated poorly; the metal corrodes aggressively, and the public distrusted them almost immediately upon issue.
Boo-dung mint iron pieces were struck for only a narrow window before the experiment was largely abandoned in favor of the massive-denomination brass issues that would cause their own inflationary crisis.
