| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field bears four large Chinese ideograms arranged in a cruciform pattern, reading top to bottom and right to left, with Manchu script characters occupying the centre. The entire arrangement is enclosed within a beaded inner circle, itself surrounded by a continuous outer legend of Chinese ideograms denoting the reign title, denomination, mint, and metal. The overall composition is symmetrical and characteristic of late Qing provincial coinage. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Hunan was among the last major provinces to establish a modern mint, opening its facility in Changsha only in 1897 — years behind Guangdong and the other early adopters. This piece is a pattern, meaning it never entered circulation; it represents one of several competing design proposals submitted as the province worked to standardize its coinage alongside imperial directives from Beijing. The placement of Manchu script at centre was not a neutral aesthetic choice — it signaled bureaucratic deference to Qing imperial authority at a moment when provincial minting autonomy was already a politically charged subject.
