| Obverse description | Central field features a single large Chinese ideogram rendered in Seal script (篆書), enclosed within a decorative ring of small raised circles. The surrounding field bears a horizontal legend in standard Chinese script above the central motif, reading 中華民國元年 漢 (Year 1 of the Republic of China, Han). The overall design is spare and formal, reflecting the transitional republican coinage style of early 20th-century China. |
