| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central round hole surrounded by Chinese characters arranged in the field, with the primary legend reading the denomination and date. The inscriptions are enclosed within a decorative beaded or rope-like inner border, with additional characters forming concentric registers around the central perforation. The overall layout presents the text in a formal, symmetrical arrangement characteristic of Republican-era Chinese coinage patterns. |

Pattern coinage from the early Republic is rarely straightforward, and this piece is no exception. The inclusion of "Giorgi" — almost certainly a reference to the Italian medalist Luigi Giorgi, who worked with the Chinese government on coin design and die production during the 1910s — places this squarely within the turbulent early years of Yuan Shikai's presidency, when the Republic was actively contracting foreign expertise to modernize its mint output. Giorgi's involvement typically indicates a piece produced for official evaluation rather than circulation trials.
1916 was Yuan Shikai's final year; he died in June having abandoned the republic entirely for a failed imperial restoration. Whether this pattern advanced beyond evaluation is unrecorded.
