| Reverse description | Rectangular reverse with a raised border framing the field, mirroring the obverse in overall form and finish. Four large Chinese characters are deeply struck in bold relief script, reading vertically: 精銀壹両 (Jing Yin Yi Liang, meaning 'Pure silver, one liang'). The inscription serves as a direct denomination and fineness declaration, consistent with Vietnamese imperial currency practices under the Nguyen dynasty. The surface exhibits the characteristic tool marks and slight irregularities of hand-cast and hand-finished production typical of the Gia Long period. |
