| Beschrijving voorzijde | Facing bust effigy of Yuan Shikai, self-proclaimed Hongxian Emperor, depicted in military uniform adorned with epaulettes, decorations including a sunburst order on his chest, and a tall plumed imperial ceremonial hat with fringed tassel. The portrait is rendered in high relief with fine detail to the facial features, including a prominent moustache and goatee. A beaded border frames the design along the coin's periphery. The field is plain, with no surrounding legend, drawing full attention to the central effigy. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Yuan Shikai proclaimed himself the Hongxian Emperor on December 12, 1915, launching a monarchical restoration that collapsed within 83 days under military revolt and international ridicule. These gold pattern pieces were prepared for the anticipated inaugural coinage but never progressed to a sanctioned issue — Yuan abandoned the throne in March 1916 and was dead by June.
The multiple L&M references reflect genuine die differences between recorded specimens rather than cataloging inconsistency. Surviving examples are believed to number in the single digits across all varieties combined.
