| Reverse description | The reverse features four inscriptions arranged around the central square perforation, identifying the issuing mint and denomination. A single Chinese character 阿 (A, abbreviation for Aksu) appears above the square hole, and the character 十 (Shi, meaning 'Ten') appears below. To the right of the square hole is an Old Uyghur script word reading 'Aqsu' (Aksu), and to the left is its Manchu script equivalent, also reading 'Aksu'. The three-script inscription is characteristic of Qing Dynasty coinage from the Xinjiang mints, asserting both imperial authority and local identity. |
