| Beschrijving voorzijde | Cast brass cash coin featuring a central square hole flanked by four Chinese characters in regular script (kaishu), arranged in cruciform fashion reading top-to-bottom, right-to-left: 同治重寶 (Tong Zhi Zhong Bao), meaning 'Tongzhi Emperor's heavy currency.' The characters are boldly rendered in raised relief against a flat, unadorned field. The coin's rim is plain and slightly raised, framing the legend without additional ornamental devices. The overall design follows the established Qing dynasty cash coin format, with the reign title and denomination integrated into the four-character legend. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Tongzhi reign (1862–1874) saw the Board of Revenue mint in Beijing struggling to maintain the bimetallic cash system that had already been badly destabilized by the massive Taiping Rebellion. Copper shortages drove a gradual shift toward brass alloys across multiple mints during this period, and the Board of Revenue issues reflect that transition directly in their metallurgy.
Hartill 22.1129 is among the more consistently produced types from Boo-chiowan, though output varied considerably year to year as the Qing fiscal administration attempted to rationalize a coinage system that had fragmented badly under wartime pressures.
