| Obverse description | Central field bears four large Chinese ideograms arranged in a cross pattern reading top to bottom and right to left, with a decorative floral rosette at the centre. The upper legend contains the reign title and mint name in Chinese characters, while the lower legend indicates the denomination. Manchu script flanks the central characters to the left and right, identifying the Boo-an mint. The overall layout follows the traditional imperial cash coin format adapted for milled coinage. |

| Reverse description | A boldly rendered imperial dragon is depicted facing forward at centre, clutching a flaming pearl, with its body coiling symmetrically amid stylised clouds and waves. A second dragon head and body emerge flanking the central motif, giving the design a distinctive dual-dragon appearance. The upper arc of the legend reads 'AN-HWEI' and the lower arc reads 'TGEN CASH', encircling the dragon design within a beaded inner border. Small five-pointed stars serve as separators in the field. The design is characteristic of the provincial machine-struck cash coinage issued under the Guangxu reign. |
