| Obverse description | Central field bears four large Chinese ideograms arranged in a cruciform pattern reading top to bottom, right to left, with a decorative floral rosette at the centre. An inner border of additional Chinese characters forms a circular legend surrounding the central motif, conveying the mint name, reign title, denomination, and metal composition. The entire design is contained within a plain inner ring and a finely beaded outer border. |

The entire composition is enclosed within a beaded border, with no peripheral legend. |
