| Reverse description | Plain and entirely uninscribed reverse, exhibiting only the raised square inner rim surrounding the central square perforation and a plain raised outer rim. The flat field bears no characters, symbols, or decorative elements, consistent with the uniface casting practice common to Northern Song iron cash of this series. The surface shows typical casting texture with heavy iron oxidation patina. |
