| Obverse description | Cast brass cash coin featuring a central square perforation surrounded by a raised border. The four-character reign inscription 咸豐重寶 (Xianfeng Zhongbao) is arranged in cruciform fashion around the central hole, reading top-bottom-right-left in regular script (kaishu). The characters are boldly rendered in raised relief against a flat, unadorned field, with no inner or outer rim decoration beyond a plain raised border. The style is consistent with large-denomination Xianfeng-era cash coinage produced at the Board of Revenue Mint. |
