| Obverse description | Central field features the large Chinese character 庫 (Treasury/Kuping) enclosed within a raised dotted inner circle. Five additional Chinese characters — 局, 器, 械, 洋, 北 — are arranged symmetrically around the central device in the outer field, reading collectively as 'Pei Yang Arsenal Kuping (Tael)'. The design is bold and deeply struck, with no border legend, the characters filling the available field in a stylized yet legible manner. |
