Reverse description Plain reverse field with a central square hole surrounded by a single raised inner rim and an outer border rim, consistent with standard Kan'ei Tsūhō iron coinage. A single Chinese character 久 (Ku) appears in the lower field below the square hole, identifying the issuing mint as the Kuji (久慈) district facility in Mutsu Province. The character is cast in kaisho script and, while worn, remains legible against the otherwise flat, unadorned field.
