Reverse description Plain reverse featuring a central square perforation with a raised square inner rim and a raised outer rim bordering the coin's circumference. The flat field between the inner and outer rims is entirely blank and undecorated, displaying only the natural patina of the cast bronze surface, consistent with standard East Asian cash coin reverse design of the Nara period.
