| Obverse description | Central field bears four large Chinese characters arranged in a cruciform layout reading 壹錢喀什 (Yi Qian Ka Shi, meaning '1 Qian Kashgar'), rendered in bold, brushstroke-style calligraphy. The coin is struck on a round planchet with a beaded border encircling the entire design. The field is plain and unadorned beyond the inscription, with no effigy or additional decorative elements. The overall style is characteristic of the late Qing provincial issues struck at the Kashgar Mint for local circulation in Chinese Turkestan. |
