| Obverse description | Cast copper cash coin with a central square hole surrounded by a raised square border. Four Chinese characters in regular script (kaishu) are arranged in the traditional reading order: top to bottom and right to left, reading 光緒通寶 (Guangxu Tongbao, meaning 'Guangxu currency'). The characters are rendered in bold relief against a flat, unadorned field, with 光 (Guang) at top, 緒 (xu) at bottom, 通 (Tong) to the right, and 寶 (Bao) to the left. The coin is bounded by a plain raised rim. |
